2 How are weathering erosion and deposition related give an example?

Answer 1

Deposition The erosional transport of material through the landscape is rarely continuous. Instead, we find that particles may undergo repeated cycles of entrainment, transport, and deposition. Transport depends on an appropriate balance of forces within the transporting medium. A reduction in the velocity of the medium, or an increase in the resistance of the particles may upset this balance and cause deposition. Reductions in competence can occur in a variety of ways. Velocity can be reduced locally by the sheltering effect of large rocks, hills, stands of vegetation or other obstructions. Normally, competence changes occur because of large scale reductions in the velocity of flowing medium. For wind, reductions in velocity can be related to variations in spatial heating and cooling which create pressure gradients and wind. In water, lower velocities can be caused by reductions in discharge or a change in the grade of the stream. Glacial flows of ice can become slower if precipitation input is reduced or when the ice encounters melting. Deposition can also be caused by particle precipitation and flocculation. Both of these processes are active only in water. Precipitation is a process where dissolved ions become solid because of changes in the temperature or chemistry of the water. Flocculation is a chemical process where salt causes the aggregation of minute clay particles into larger masses that are too heavy to remain suspended.

Answer 2

Weathering breaks down rocks into sediment, which is then transported by erosion to new locations. Deposition occurs when the transported sediment settles down in a different location, forming new landforms. For example, as water weathers granite rocks, the resulting sediment is eroded by a river, transported downstream, and eventually deposited at the river mouth to form a delta.

Answer 3

Erosion is condition in which the earth's surface is worn away by the action of water and wind. Weathering is the decomposition of Earth rocks, soils and their minerals through direct contact with the planet's atmosphere.

Answer 4

They all cause the Earth's surface to change.

Answer 5

Weathering erosion and deposition are related because they all happen in a cycle.

Answer 6

Deposition does the job of placing sediment in a new location.

Answer 7

they both carry sediments from one place to another.

Answer 8

Beans beans they're good for your heart the more you eat the more you fart ;d

Answer 9

The stuff that is eroded away (dirt) has to end up somewhere else (deposition).
