Rain and snow are two forms of precipitation that return water to Earth's surface. Rain is liquid water falling from the clouds, while snow is frozen water crystals that fall as flakes.
When glaciers form they scrape earth's surface as they advance. Also when glaciers melt it deposits the sediment it eroded from the land creating various land forms.
Two processes that cause waves to erode a coastline are hydraulic action, which is the force of the water itself against the coastline, and abrasion, which is the wearing away of the coastline by the material carried by the waves.
The Earth's crust is the outermost layer of the Earth. It is divided into two types: continental crust, which forms the continents, and oceanic crust, which forms the ocean floors.
Any type of erosion is a cause for international concern, water and wind are the two primary causes accounting for more than 80% of the problem. Water erosion includes river and streams, rainfall, coastal erosion, freezing and thawing, glaciers and floods. Moving water erodes the land
Glaciers erode Earth's surface through abrasion, where the ice and sediments grind against the rock, wearing it down. They also erode through plucking, where the glacier freezes onto rock and plucks or pulls it away as the glacier moves.

The glacier scrapes the surface of the earth as it advances, then deposits that till at its terminus when it melts.
It is formed when two glaciers erode parallel from each other or when two glaciers erode towards each other
The atmosphere and the hydrosphere interact in the form of precipitation. The atmosphere releases water vapor through evaporation, which then condenses and falls back to Earth as rain, snow, or other forms of precipitation into bodies of water in the hydrosphere.

The Earth's crust is the outermost layer of the Earth. It is divided into two types: continental crust, which forms the continents, and oceanic crust, which forms the ocean floors.
Two thirds of the Earth's surface is covered by water.
The layer of rock that forms Earth's outer skin is called the crust. It is the thin, solid outer layer of the Earth, composed of various types of rocks and minerals. The crust is divided into two types: the continental crust, which forms the continents, and the oceanic crust, which underlies the ocean floors. This layer is crucial for supporting life and is where we find soil, water, and ecosystems.
