1. Anytime you see bold and underlined words, you will need to write those down

2. EROSION the transport of sediment Energy increases
Water
Gravity
Ice
Wind
EROSION
the transport of sediment
Energy increases
More energy = more particles and bigger particles

3. DEPOSITION
Sediment is dropped
Energy decreases
Wind
Water
Gravity
Ice

4. Which will drop faster? vs. Which of the following will settle faster?
Bigger/smaller
Rounder/flatter
Denser/less dense

5. All the same size or graded, due to change in energy
Sorted
Unsorted
All the same size or graded, due to change in energy
Fall randomly, mixed

6. Graded bedding

7. EROSIONAL-DEPOSITIONAL SYSTEMS
Glaciers
Shorelines
Rivers
Deserts

8. Dynamic Equilibrium
Erosion in one place = Deposition someplace else Head of river = Mouth of river Pitted bedrock = Sand dune Gouged bedrock = Moraine deposit

9. GRAVITY EROSION and DEPOSITION

10. Mass movement
Any form of giant slabs of land moving all at once

11. Landslides 1 2

12. Gravity pulls big chunks of rock off of a cliff
Rock fall 1 2
Gravity pulls big chunks of rock off of a cliff

13. Creep
The slow movement of giant areas of land – indicated by bent tree trunks, leaning poles, cracked roads

15. When land sinks into a cave under the surface
Subsidence
When land sinks into a cave under the surface

16. Slump
A slab of loose land is pulled down and leaves a concave scare on the cliff face

18. Alluvial fan
Fan-shaped deposit of angular, unsorted sediment at the base of a cliff or hill

21. Talus
Any gravity-deposited sediment
