What is Erosion and How is it Different than Weathering  Weathering is the breaking down of rock into smaller pieces.  Erosion is the MOVEMENT of these.
Weathering The process of breaking down of rocks into smaller and smaller pieces of rock. These small pieces are known as sediment. Sediment breaks down.
Erosion is the process by which natural forces move weathered rock and soil from one place to another. Erosion can occur quickly or slowly.

Vocabulary 11/15

Deposition Dropping of sediments that occurs when an agent of erosion loses its energy and no longer carries its load. For example: glaciers, gravity, wind, water.

Mass Movement Also known as mass waste. Any type of erosion that occurs as gravity moves material down-slope.

Abrasion A type of erosion that occurs when wind-blown sediments strike rocks and sediments, polishing and pitting their surface.

Deflation A type of erosion that occurs when wind blows over loose sediments, removes small particles, and leaves coarser sediments behind.
