What else can I help you with?
What happens when heavy rain builds up in dry sediment?
Mudflows then occur after
What term is used for glaciers picking up and carrying sediment?
erosion
Is trash picked up on Martin Luther King day in Los Angeles?
No
Which is the best definition of deposition The transportation of sediments to another place The dropping off of eroded sediment or The swelling of earth materials as it soaks up water?
I don't know what you mean, but I hope this helps: Deposition is the putting down of a load. In geological terms, by a glacier, river, or wind mainly.
With longshore drift dose beach sediment move to another one?
Yes, longshore drift is a process where sediment moves along the coast due to the action of waves approaching the shore at an angle. As waves hit the beach, they carry sand and other materials up the shore and then back down with the retreating water, resulting in a zigzag movement of sediment along the coastline. This process can lead to the gradual erosion of one beach and the accumulation of sediment on another nearby beach.
Is it true that all of the sediment picked up by wind eventually falls to the ground?
yes
What is a carrying sediment?
A carrying sediment is a material in motion within a river, stream, or ocean that is transporting particles such as sand, silt, or mud. This sediment is picked up and moved by the flow of water or wind, aiding in erosion and deposition processes in various environments.
What Sediments can be picked by?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
At what wind speed can a human be picked up?
A human can be picked up by the wind at speeds of around 50-60 miles per hour.
Which type of land suffers the most from wind erosion?
Dry and loose soil, such as in deserts and arid regions, is most susceptible to wind erosion. Lack of vegetation and dry conditions make the soil more vulnerable to being picked up and carried away by wind.
What do sand dunes and delta have in common?
they are both formed when wind or water picks up sediment
What part does wind play in erosion?
Wind picks up sediment which causes erosion when it hits the rock.
Sediments can be picked up by what?
Sediments can be picked up by water, wind, or ice. Water can transport sediments in rivers, streams, and oceans, while wind can carry sediments in the form of dust or sand. Ice, through processes like glaciers, can also transport sediments across landscapes.
When wind blows sediment against an obstacle what does the built-up sediment result?
Wouldn't you like to know ;)
Wind removes sand and other sediment from the ground of what?
Wind removes sand and other sediment from the ground of deserts, beaches, and arid regions, where the force of wind can easily pick up and transport loose particles.
What is the sediment and other deposits picked up as a result of abrasion called?
The rocks, sand, and silt eroded by a river is called the "load."
What happens when heavy rain builds up in dry sediment?
Mudflows then occur after
