5. I’m guessing this picture can be
used to illustrate some form of root
weathering. As you can see a large
root of the tree has come out from
beneath, splitting the ground in two
levels (one is higher than the other).
6. The picture on the top left is of a cement
pole which rests within the stream. This
pole depicts rusting that has occurred
overtime due to the stream’s salty water.
This picture here also shows
rusting of steel
7.
8. Here, there are different layers of
minerals and rocks. This can be seen as
water has dried up and left this part
under the bridge quite muddy.
Sediments have been deposited all
around the area. Ripple marks and cross
bedding can also be seen.
9. I took this picture of the only
bridge we have here in Firebaugh.
Its less than a mile long . The old
bridge was torn down and
replaced with this one only a few
decades ago. It was better elevated
and structured to better improve
transportation across it. Due to
high floods from the San Joaquin
River, this bridge was made
stronger and higher.
