What else can I help you with?
What can cause erosion?
wind, water, and ice
Which agents carry erosion products?
Wind, water, ice, and gravity.
How cold does it have to be for an erosion to happen?
Erosion due to cold temperatures will happen at 32 F or below, as long as the temperature eventually risies above 32 F. This is erosion due to the freeze-thaw cycle. There are also forms of erosion that result from weather and from water movement, and these forms can occure at any temperature, warm or cold.
What increases erosion?
weather so like rain snow ice wind etc
U-shaped valleys and parallel grooves in bedrock are characteristics of erosion by?
glacial ice
How do you think erosion may vary when you have snow or ice versus rain?
Water is constantly moving causing erosion to happen more quickly than snow or ice which does not move.
How is ice erosion delayed?
Ice erosion cannot be stopped.
What are three ways erosion can occur?
Erosion can occur through the actions of water, wind, and ice. Water erosion can happen from rainfall, rivers, or waves wearing away soil and rock. Wind erosion occurs when wind carries away loose particles of soil and sediment. Ice erosion happens when glaciers move and scrape against the land, wearing it down over time.
Ice is a type of erosion why?
Ice is a type of erosion because when ice is melted caused by the weather and anything weathered into something else is the process of erosion. Hope I helped!!
Which type of erosion is causing by moving masses of ice?
The type of erosion that is caused by moving masses of ice is called glacial erosion.
What are the three forms of erosion water wind and?
The three forms of erosion are water, wind, and ice. Water erosion occurs through the movement of water, wind erosion happens when wind carries and deposits sediment, and ice erosion is when glaciers or ice sheets move and reshape the landscape.
Why does erosion have to happen before deposition can happen?
Erosion is the process of wearing away rocks and soil, creating sediment that can be carried by wind, water, or ice. Deposition occurs when this sediment is dropped or deposited in a new location. Erosion is necessary before deposition because it is the source of the sediment that is being moved and eventually deposited.
What causes the erosion?
wind, air, and ice cause erosion.
Wind water and ice are causes of?
Wind, water, and ice are causes of weathering and erosion on Earth's surface. Wind erosion happens when wind carries and deposits sediment, water erosion occurs when flowing water wears away rocks and soil, and ice erosion occurs when glaciers and ice sheets move and shape the landscape.
What is the term for the movement of rock material from on place to another?
The term for the movement of rock material from one place to another is erosion. This can happen through processes like wind, water, ice, or gravity.
What are some examples of erosion caused by ice?
ice wedging
What are the 4 major types of erosion?
The four major types of erosion are water erosion (caused by runoff and water flow), wind erosion (caused by wind moving particles), ice erosion (caused by glaciers and ice melt), and gravity erosion (caused by gravity moving rocks and soil downhill).
