12
Rates of Weathering Some material erode faster –Depends on softness/hardness How much is exposed –Surface area Location –Climate –Topography/Elevation
13
Wind Erosion Wind can also erode Moves loose fragments of dirt/dust –Areas where plant roots do not anchor soil as well
14
EROSION Creates many features You and a partner will learn about 1 and describe it to the class
