A deep steep-sided valley formed by weathering and erosion is called a canyon. Canyons are typically formed by the action of rivers cutting through rock over long periods of time.
A deep steep-sided valley formed by weathering and erosion is called a canyon. Canyons are typically formed by the gradual wearing away of rock by water and wind over long periods of time, creating a deep, narrow valley with steep sides.
A deep narrow valley with high steep sides caused by weathering and erosion is known as a canyon. Canyons are typically formed over long periods of time by the action of rivers, glaciers, or other natural forces cutting through the rock.
A bowl-shaped depression at the head of a glacial valley is called a cirque or a corrie. It is typically formed by the erosion of a glacier.
In cross-section: A 'U' shaped valley is formed from glacial erosion. A 'V' shaped valley is formed by river erosion.
A ravine is a narrow, deep valley with steep sides typically formed by water erosion. It is often characterized by its rugged terrain and lack of vegetation.

A valley can be formed by erosion and weathering when a river or stream cuts through the land over time, wearing away the softer rock and soil. Additionally, weathering processes like freeze-thaw cycles and chemical weathering can break down the rocks along the valley walls, deepening and widening the valley over time.

Most canyons were formed by a process of long-time erosion from a plateau or table-land level. The cliffs form because harder rock strata that are resistant to erosion and weathering remain exposed on the valley walls.
The Arkansas River was formed by erosion, not deposition.

a canyon, ravineor gorge
The Arkansas river valley was formed by streams of water on when the state of Arkansas was under the ocean 400 billion years ago
A U-Shaped Valley is formed by glacial erosion.
No. Wind can cause some erosion, but it cannot form valleys. Yosemite valley was formed by glaciers.
Yosemite National Park and lakes were formed by erosion in California.
