Both processes contribute to the rock cycle. Weathered rock particles are eroded. Without agents of erosion (wind, moving water, ice, gravity), weathered particles would remain in the same place. Through erosion, however, weathered particles are carried to new locations and deposited where they could eventually lithify into sedimentary rock, which could then metamorphose into metamorphic rock, and further down the road, melt and re-solidify into igneous rock.
What else can I help you with?
In what order do deposition weathering and erosion occur?
first the weathering happens which causes an erosion which makes deposition.
What is the process that break down rock called?
Weathering or erosion.
How is a hurricane related to weathering erosion and deposition?
how is hurricane related to weathering
What is the weathering of the earth's surface called?
The weathering of the Earth's surface is called erosion. Erosion is the process by which soil and rock are removed and transported by wind, water, or ice.
Is it possible to have erosion without weathering?
No, erosion and weathering are closely related processes in the breakdown and transportation of rocks and soil. Weathering breaks down the material, making it easier for erosion to transport it away. In nature, erosion and weathering typically work together to shape the Earth's surface.
Is there any difference between erosion and weathering of rocks?
erosion reqiures movement and weathering doesnt
What is the difference between weather and erosion?
the difference between weathering & erosion is quite simple weathering breaks down and erosion carries it away like a blow dryer
What thing is different from erosion and weathering?
Erosion is when..................................................................................................................................................and weathering is when......................................................................................................!
What is the different between weathering and erosion?
maybe there just differrent by how they work
What comes first weathering erosion deposition?
weathering then erosion ,then deposition
Is erosion another name for weathering?
Yes, erosion is a synonym of weathering.
Does weathering must take place before erosion?
Weathering does not necessarily have to take place before erosion. While weathering is the breakdown of rocks into smaller particles, erosion is the process of transporting these particles to a new location. Weathering can occur simultaneously with erosion or even after erosion has started.
In what order do deposition weathering and erosion occur?
first the weathering happens which causes an erosion which makes deposition.
How is weathering distinct from erosion and what are the key differences between the two processes?
Weathering is the process of breaking down rocks and minerals on the Earth's surface, while erosion is the movement of these broken down materials from one place to another. The key difference between weathering and erosion is that weathering occurs in place, causing rocks to break down, while erosion involves the transportation of these weathered materials by wind, water, or ice to a different location.
Why is the sediment load in a river an indicator of the amount of weathering and erosion?
Because the bigger the load is, more weathering and erosion there is. The less of it means less of weathering and erosion.
The major cause of weathering and erosion is?
Wind and water are the major causes of weathering and erosion.
What are the process that cause earths surface to wear down?
Weathering and erosion
