There are many physical and human related factors that have affected the earth's surface, but it is changes brought on by different types of erosion that is the most widespread. Erosion is the process by which soil and rock are removed from one location on earth and transported to another location.
While wind, chemical, and biological weathering are factors in erosion, the two main causes of erosive change to the earth's surface are due to the movements of water and ice, which are two physical processes responsible for the vast majority of erosion on the surface of the earth. The flow of water causes erosion, and subsequently, changes in the earth's surface by attrition, hydraulic action, abrasion/corrosion, and solution/corrosion. Water also serves to transport eroded rock, soil, and other materials, depositing the debris in other locations to alter landscapes around the world.
Ice changes the earth by scouring, plucking and ice thrusting which occurs in glacial areas including non-polar mountains, carving out valleys. The glacial phenomenon of plucking results in the movement of large boulders, breaking the rock down and depositing the smaller debris downslope, the fragments of which are known as till.
Energy from Earth's interior, in the form of heat, drives processes such as plate tectonics which cause volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and the creation of mountains. The movement of molten rock in the mantle creates pressure that can result in geological activities like crustal uplift, faulting, and magma intrusions, leading to changes in the Earth's surface.
The energy from the core of the earth causes currents in the molten layers, the way there are currents in the ocean. These currents are what causes the Tectonic Plates to move along the surface of the earth.
Three factors that cause the amount of solar energy to vary over Earth's surface are the angle of sunlight, atmospheric conditions such as clouds and air pollution, and the duration of daylight hours.
Natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, and tsunamis can change the Earth's surface quickly. These events can cause rapid and dramatic alterations to the landscape, reshaping the terrain in a short period of time.
The cycles resulting from changes in Earth's movements are called Milankovitch cycles. These changes in Earth's orbit and axial tilt can affect the amount and distribution of sunlight reaching the Earth's surface, potentially leading to ice ages.
What property of magam cause it to rise towaed earths surface?
A primary cause for surface winds on the earth is the Earths Rotation.
The thing that cause the changes on the Earth is the worst because after an earthquake you could rebuild things an they could look 100 percent better than they did before the Natural disaster occurred.

it can rapidly cause a landslide to occur
moving tectonic plates on earths surface
yes it will
Climate
Weathering and erosion
one major contributor is moving water
they are under the earths surface and cause earth Quakes
