WEATHERING! And you thought it would be hard! 

What happens to the mountains when the snow thaws?

MECHANICAL WEATHERING Created by a physical change. Freezing & Thawing Abrasion Animal Actions Plant Growth Release of Pressure Rock still looks the same or is made up of the same material, but changes physically. Example – Water – Ice

Abrasion

CHEMICAL WEATHERING Breaks down rock through chemical changes. Could change the chemical make up. Water Oxygen Carbon Dioxide Living Organisms Acid Rain

Water – Chemical Weathering

Pollution from large factories causes acid rain.

What are signs of weathering that you see around Mt. Vernon?
