Processes of Change. EQ: How does weathering occur? EQ:
Objective Students will have an understanding of how rocks change due to weathering and erosion.
Weathering 2
Forces That Shape Our Earth: UNIT 3: WeatheringAndErosion.
Lecture 16 Earthquakes What are earthquakes? Elastic rebound theory Waves generated by earthquakes: P waves, S waves, Surface waves Locating earthquakes.
Topic 2: Frozen Water Grade 8 Science. Distribution of water on earth Groundwater = 0.63% Rivers/Lakes/Ponds = 0.02% Glaciers/Ice sheets = 2.15% Oceans.
Forces That Change Our World Students will identify surface features of the Earth caused by constructive and destructive processes. a.Identify surface.
Weathering must happen before erosion can take place!
Soil Evolution Field Biology CCTI Mrs. Conway. Directions Read through the following slides while completing your lab packet. Be sure to answer all question.
Weathering. What is Weathering? The physical, chemical, and biological processes that break down rocks and minerals, turning large particles into smaller.
Chapter 7 Erosion. What is Erosion and Deposition? Erosion – A process that moves the sediments from one location to another, usually by gravity, glaciers,
Chapter 5. Breaks rocks down, but doesn’t change mineral composition Increases surface area of rocks Caused by 3 processes: Frost wedging Unloading.
