Erosion and weathering are major forces that shape the Earth's surface. Erosion is when the Earth's surface is worn away by forces like moving water, wind, oceans, and glaciers. Weathering is when rocks are broken down into smaller pieces through various processes like freezing and thawing of water, plant roots, and chemical reactions. Understanding these forces helps explain landforms like canyons and shorelines. Soil erosion from forces like water and wind is important because humans rely on soil for food production.

The Earth System
Earth as a system is composed of numerous interacting parts or subsystem. Earth system science attempts to integrate the knowledge from traditional sciences, geology, atmospheric science, chemistry, biology and so on. Earth is just a small part of larger system known as the solar system.
Earth system has nearly endless array of subsystems in which matter is recycled over and over again.
Exogenic
The document discusses various exogenic (surface) processes including weathering, mass wasting, and soil erosion. It describes three main types of weathering - physical, chemical, and biotic weathering. Physical weathering breaks rocks into smaller pieces through mechanical processes like heating/cooling or frost action without changing the chemical composition. Chemical weathering alters the chemical makeup of rocks through oxidation, carbonation, hydration, or solution. Biotic weathering is caused by living organisms through root growth, burrowing, or human activities. Mass wasting and soil erosion are also exogenic processes that transport weathered material downslope or remove soil faster than replacement through water, wind, ice, or gravity.
Weathering
The document discusses the two main types of weathering - chemical and mechanical. Chemical weathering involves changing the minerals in rocks through processes like acid etching and oxidation. Mechanical weathering breaks rocks into fragments without changing their chemical makeup, through processes like frost wedging and abrasion. Weathering breaks rocks down, while erosion involves their removal and transport by agents such as water, wind, waves and glaciers. The document provides examples of different geological processes and asks the reader to identify if they involve weathering, erosion, or both.
Rocks and weathering
This document defines and describes the three main types of weathering: physical, chemical, and biological. Physical weathering breaks rocks into smaller pieces through temperature changes and water, such as exfoliation weathering caused by hot temperatures and freeze-thaw weathering caused by melting and freezing water. Chemical weathering occurs as acid in rainwater reacts with minerals in rocks, either slowly over time from carbonic acid or more rapidly from acid rain. Biological weathering results from plants and animals breaking rocks into fragments.
Weathering
Mechanical and chemical weathering break down rocks into smaller pieces. Mechanical weathering causes physical disintegration through processes like frost wedging, plant roots, and temperature changes without altering the rock's chemical composition. Chemical weathering alters rocks through chemical reactions with water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and acids. Water is the main agent of chemical weathering, dissolving minerals and rocks through hydrolysis and hydration. Carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid, which breaks down minerals like limestone. Oxidation also contributes to chemical weathering.
Weathering
Weathering is the breaking down of rocks and materials at the Earth's surface through mechanical and chemical processes. Mechanical weathering causes no chemical change and includes temperature fluctuations, frost action, root growth, and abrasion by water and wind. Chemical weathering alters the composition of minerals and includes dissolution by water and acids, oxidation, and hydrolysis. The rate of weathering depends on factors like composition, cracks/holes, climate, topography, air pollution, and exposure time. Both mechanical and chemical weathering work together to slowly break down rocks over very long periods of time.
EROSION & DEPOSITION (teach)
Erosion and deposition are closely related processes where erosion involves the movement of rocks and sediment from one location to another under the forces of water, wind, or ice. Deposition then occurs when these agents carrying sediment slow down and drop their loads in a new location. Water is the primary agent of erosion, carrying sediment downstream as it erodes rocks and soil from higher elevations. As water velocity decreases, such as at the mouth of a river, its sediment load is deposited, potentially forming features like deltas or beaches over time. Wind is also an erosive force, picking up and transporting sediment which is later deposited in locations like sand dunes when winds calm.

GEOLOGIC PROCESSES ON EARTH
Exogenous processes involve the breakdown and movement of earth's surface materials by external forces like weathering, erosion, and mass wasting. Weathering breaks down rocks through physical and chemical processes. Erosion wears away earth's surface by wind, water, or ice. Mass wasting involves large masses of materials moving down slopes due to gravity, such as debris flows, mudflows, and slumps. Sedimentation is the accumulation of eroded materials. Endogenous processes occur inside Earth and involve magmatism, volcanism, and metamorphism which change the composition of rocks.
Weathering- Mechanical,Chemical,Biological/Biotic
Mechanical, chemical, and biological processes all contribute to weathering of rocks. Mechanical weathering breaks rocks down physically through freezing and thawing of water or expansion and contraction from temperature changes. Chemical weathering uses chemical reactions like oxidation and hydrolysis that break bonds between minerals, especially when aided by water. Biological weathering is caused by living organisms like plant roots that grow into cracks and widen them over time.
Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition
Weathering breaks rocks down into smaller pieces through physical or chemical processes when exposed to the atmosphere and hydrosphere. Physical weathering breaks rocks without changing their chemical composition through processes like frost wedging and abrasion. Chemical weathering alters the chemical composition of rocks through oxidation, hydrolysis, and carbonation. The products of weathering accumulate as soil and are further eroded by agents such as water, wind, and ice. Erosion transports eroded material which is eventually deposited elsewhere, usually in bodies of water, based on factors like particle size, shape, density, and transport velocity.

Introduction to Earth Science
1) Earth science studies Earth and its place in the universe, including geology, oceanography, meteorology, and astronomy. It views Earth as an interconnected system.
2) The formation of Earth is explained by the nebular hypothesis where the solar system condensed from a giant cloud of gas and dust. As Earth formed, radioactive decay caused heating and differentiation into layers.
3) Science uses observation, experimentation and hypotheses to build theories that describe patterns in nature. Theories must withstand examination and modification.
Magmatism.pptx
Magma forms deep in the Earth's crust and upper mantle through the process of partial melting. Heat from the mantle causes rocks like quartz and feldspar to melt at temperatures over 650°C. Additional melting occurs through decompression as magma rises to shallower depths and pressure decreases, or through flux melting when water or carbon dioxide are added to already hot rocks. Once a volcano erupts, the magma is called lava on the Earth's surface.
LESSON 1 uniqueness of the earth.pptx
The document discusses the unique properties of Earth that enable life. It describes how Earth's distance from the sun, atmosphere, size and mass, magnetic field, and presence of water all contribute to regulating temperature and protecting life from radiation. The atmosphere protects living things through mechanisms like photodissociation that break down ozone into elemental oxygen, converting harmful radiation to less harmful radiation. Earth's gravity also helps maintain its atmosphere and keep the moon in orbit. Understanding Earth's unique characteristics is significant for recognizing what enables life on the planet.
Exogenic processes
Exogenic processes originate externally to the Earth's surface and include weathering, erosion, mass wasting, and deposition. Weathering is the breakdown of rocks at the Earth's surface by temperature, rainfall, frost and other environmental factors. Erosion is the transport of weathered rock and sediment by forces like water, wind, glaciers and gravity. Mass wasting is the downward movement of rock and sediment on slopes due to gravity. Deposition occurs as eroded sediments are deposited in a new location through wind, water or other transport processes. Exogenic processes play an important role in shaping the Earth's surface and creating different landforms and landscapes.

10. Earth's Interior Heat Notes
Earth's interior heat comes from two main sources: residual heat left over from the planet's formation and ongoing radioactive decay within Earth's core and mantle. This heat keeps the outer core liquid through convection of iron and nickel, generating the Earth's magnetic field, and drives thermal convection in the mantle which powers plate tectonics at the surface. Heat is eventually released through volcanic and tectonic activity that forms and cools new crust.
Agents of Erosion
This document discusses the four main agents of erosion: water, wind, vegetation, and human action.

layers of the earth
The document summarizes key information about the structure and composition of the Earth. It describes the four major layers from the center out - the inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust. The crust is divided into tectonic plates that move via three processes at their boundaries: convergent, divergent, and sliding. Earthquakes and volcanoes occur as results of this plate tectonic activity and the movement of molten rock within the Earth.
Weathering and erosion introduction
Weathering breaks down rocks and minerals near Earth's surface through mechanical and chemical processes. Mechanical weathering physically breaks rocks into smaller pieces through frost wedging, thermal expansion and contraction, exfoliation, and abrasion by wind, water, or plant growth. Chemical weathering alters the chemical composition of rocks through dissolving, oxidation, and hydrolysis. Erosion transports weathered materials from their source through agents like water, wind, ice, and gravity, depositing sediments that form new rock layers over time.

Soil for 3rd or 4th graders. (Teach)
1) Soil is formed from two main components - tiny pieces of weathered rock and humus, which is composed of decomposed dead plants and animals.
2) Rocks are weathered into smaller pieces through natural forces like water, wind, freezing and thawing. Over long periods of time, these break rocks down from boulders into soil.
3) Humus is formed as bacteria, fungi and invertebrates decompose dead organic matter through a process of rotting and decay. This decomposition of plants and animals is what creates the dark, nutrient-rich organic component of soil.
Unit2.the earth'srelief(updated)
The document discusses the internal and external forces that shape the Earth's relief. Internally, tectonic plates move slowly over time, pushing the crust upwards to form folds or causing it to crack and form faults. Externally, agents like water, wind, temperature changes, and living things modify relief through erosion, transportation, and deposition of materials. Water plays a particularly important role in shaping landscapes through processes like river flow. Relief is constantly changing due to these combined internal and external forces.
Erosion, deposition, soil intro
This document discusses different types of erosion and deposition. It begins with definitions of erosion as the movement of sediment from one place to another, and deposition as dropped sediment. It then examines several specific types of erosion in more detail:
- Stream bank erosion occurs along streams and rivers due to running water and burrowing animals. Planting vegetation or using concrete mats can help control this type of erosion.
- Topsoil erosion involves the wearing away of the top layer of soil by water, wind, and gravity. Farming practices like no-till, contour plowing, and cover crops can prevent this type of erosion, which is important because topsoil contains nutrients and takes a long time to form.

Here are three ways to conserve soil:
1. Plant cover crops or leave plant residue on top of soil to prevent erosion from wind and water. Plant roots and above-ground matter hold soil in place.
2. Practice no-till or minimum tillage farming techniques to limit soil disturbance from tilling or plowing. This preserves soil structure and prevents erosion.
3. Leave buffer strips along waterways and avoid overgrazing or over-application of fertilizers/pesticides. This helps maintain soil nutrients and protects soil from running off into water sources.
Soil science for teachers (massive-the real dirt on soil)
A very large Slide Show on soil. Useful for anyone without formal earth science training who might need to bone up or teach any aspect of soil. It's huge, 159 slides. It could also be split up into several lessons for students.
Glacial erosion and weathering
Weathering is the breaking down of rocks in place due to exposure to weather and other environmental factors like temperature changes, water, plant roots, and human activity. Erosion is a broader term that includes both the breakdown and removal of rocks by forces like moving ice sheets or flowing water. When looking at landforms like valleys, you can see evidence of both weathering, which created smaller rock fragments, and erosion, which transported material away, leaving the characteristic valley shape.
lessons in Weathering of Grade five.pptx
Mechanical and chemical weathering break rocks down into sediments and soil. Mechanical weathering involves physical breakdown through forces like frost wedging when water freezes in cracks. Chemical weathering changes the rocks' composition through acids. Weathering is important for producing soil but excessive erosion from agents like water and wind can harm the environment if not prevented through measures like planting vegetation.

2. It includes objectives, materials, and procedures for the lesson involving a presentation, video, pictures and discussion of various types of weathering and erosion.
3. The lesson will teach students about physical and chemical weathering, different agents of erosion like water, wind and glaciers, and how these processes create landforms and affect soil.
Lecture and study guide rocks, soils, erosion, weathering and deposition
This document provides an overview of rocks, soils, erosion, weathering, and deposition. It discusses the three main types of rocks - igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic - and how they are formed. Soil formation through weathering and the layers of the soil profile are explained. Various agents and processes of erosion, weathering, and deposition are defined. Methods for controlling erosion like contour farming, terracing, and planting vegetation are also outlined. The key message is the importance of protecting natural resources and keeping the earth healthy.
Vocabulary words for further reference
The document discusses different types of rocks and how they are formed. It describes sedimentary rocks as forming from compacted sediments and containing fossils. Igneous rocks form from cooled magma, either underground as intrusive rock or on the surface as extrusive rock. Metamorphic rocks form from existing rocks undergoing heat and pressure. The rock cycle and various geological processes such as weathering, erosion, and deposition are also summarized.
30how does using natural resources affect the environment?
Natural events like volcanoes, earthquakes, hurricanes, droughts and tsunamis can cause ecosystems to change. People can also impact ecosystems through deforestation, pollution, overpopulation, and oil spills. When ecosystems change, organisms may need to accommodate by finding new resources, some species may go extinct if unable to adapt, and conservation efforts can help sustain resources through reducing consumption, reusing materials, and recycling.
How are Sedimentary rocks formed?
Sedimentary rocks are formed through the accumulation and consolidation of sediment or rock fragments. Sediments are deposited in layers over millions of years in bodies of water. The deposited layers are then compacted and cemented together by minerals like salt to form solid rock. Fossils can become embedded in these sedimentary rocks during the compaction and cementation process, providing clues about past life.
Science 4.3.5
This document discusses how various natural forces shape the Earth's surface through erosion and deposition over long periods of time. It provides examples of how wind erodes rock formations into unique shapes over hundreds of thousands of years. Waves similarly erode cliffs by carrying away tiny pieces. The Grand Canyon was formed by different erosion processes over millions of years. Glaciers can also reshape landscapes by pushing material as they advance and withdraw, leaving gouges that become features like the Great Lakes. The Appalachian Mountains have eroded from their original height due to weathering over extremely long timescales.
Geological History of New Zealand
The document discusses the geological history of New Zealand. It begins by explaining plate tectonics and the different types of boundaries where tectonic plates meet. It then describes how the Southern Alps mountain range in New Zealand was formed by the collision and movement of the Indo-Australian and Pacific tectonic plates along the Alpine Fault line. The document also discusses scree slopes, which are areas of loose rock debris found at the base of mountains, and how they are created through erosion. It explains how glaciers form and describes some of the major glacial lakes in Southland, New Zealand that were left behind when glaciers receded. Finally, it provides information about volcanoes in New Zealand's North Island
06 Chapter
The document discusses weathering, soil formation, and erosion. It describes two types of weathering - mechanical and chemical - that break down rock. Soil forms over time from weathered rock and decayed organic matter. Soil has distinct layers or horizons. Factors like climate and vegetation affect soil development and erosion risks. The document outlines various human activities and natural processes that can cause erosion, and methods to reduce erosion like contour farming, terracing, and no-till agriculture.
Soil formation
The document summarizes the key processes involved in soil formation. It explains that soil is formed through the weathering of rock by various physical, chemical, and biological processes over long periods of time. Temperature and rainfall are identified as particularly important factors that influence soil formation rates and characteristics. The different types of weathering processes that break down rock into smaller particles that eventually become soil are also described in detail.
Junior Cert Geography Notes
This document summarizes information from a textbook about earth science topics including the structure of the earth, plate tectonics, rocks, weathering and erosion, glaciation, climate and weather. It contains questions and answers on these topics. Key points include:
- The three layers of the earth are the crust, mantle and core. Plates move around on the mantle and collide or separate.
- Weathering breaks rocks down through mechanical and chemical processes. Erosion then transports the weathered material.
- Glaciers shape the landscape through erosion and deposition, forming features like cirques, moraines and drumlins.
- Climate is influenced by factors like latitude, prevailing winds, altitude and proximity
Makeup of the Earth, Lesson 2
Weathering breaks down and changes rocks through processes like water freezing in cracks, plant roots pushing against rocks, or chemical reactions. Erosion then transports these weathered rocks and soils away from their original locations using forces from wind, water, and ice which can shape the land through formations like dunes or valleys carved out by glaciers or flowing water over time. Weathering breaks down rocks which are then eroded away, continually changing Earth's surface features.

Prokaryotes
Prokaryotic cells are simple and lack a nucleus. They come in three shapes - spiral, oval, and round. Prokaryotes use flagella and cilia to move. Flagella are long whip-like structures and cilia are tiny hair-like structures that prokaryotes use for movement. All bacteria are prokaryotic cells.
Eukaryotes
The document discusses the main differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, noting that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and organelles while prokaryotic cells do not. It then focuses on eukaryotic cells, describing the main organelles found in plant and animal cells like the nucleus, cell membrane, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and vacuoles. The functions of these organelles are explained, with an emphasis on how they work together to carry out important processes within the cell.
Two Types Of Cells - Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells
There are two main types of cells: prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and include bacteria, while eukaryotic cells do have a nucleus and include plants, animals, fungi and protists. The key difference between these cell types is the presence of a nucleus - prokaryotes lack a nucleus, while eukaryotes have membrane-bound nuclei that contain their genetic material. Eukaryotic cells are more complex with many organelles and can form multicellular organisms.
Stimulus And Response
1. A stimulus is any change in an organism's environment that causes it to react, while a response is how the organism reacts to the stimulus through a change in behavior.
2. There are two types of stimuli: external stimuli that come from outside an organism like feeling cold, and internal stimuli that come from inside an organism like feeling hungry.
3. Animals can respond to stimuli through learned behaviors that are taught, like a mother bear teaching her cubs to fish, or through instincts that are inborn reactions like an animal's natural instinct to run from danger.
Food Chains and Food Webs
This document contains notes from a science lesson on food webs. The notes define food webs as a series of overlapping food chains that show the relationships among organisms in an ecosystem. Examples of food webs from different ecosystems are shown. Students then participate in an activity where they organize organisms into food webs on paper. The lesson concludes with an exit slip and homework assignment involving additional questions about marine food webs.
Physical Properties
This document contains a series of mass and length measurements in grams, meters, millimeters and centimeters. It asks the reader to identify the physical property represented by each set of measurements and then to describe themselves using 6 physical properties.
Lab Safety Expectations
Students should quietly enter the lab, sit until receiving instructions, and listen carefully to all directions. They should stay seated unless told otherwise, follow the lab book directions, and ask before trying anything new. Students need to keep the lab clean and safe by avoiding horseplay, eating, or drinking, wearing goggles with heat or chemicals, and cleaning up any messes immediately before leaving at the end.
Food Chains And Food Webs
Food chains and food webs describe how energy moves through an ecosystem. A food chain represents a single path of energy transfer between organisms, such as from berries to rabbits to foxes. A food web shows multiple interconnected food chains and demonstrates that most organisms obtain energy from many different sources. Producers, like plants, capture energy from the sun to start the process, while consumers obtain energy by eating other organisms, and decomposers break down waste to recycle nutrients and energy back into the system.
Producers, Consumers, And Decomposers
The document discusses the three categories in a food chain: producers, consumers, and decomposers. Producers, like plants, obtain energy from sunlight through photosynthesis. Consumers, like animals, eat producers or other consumers to obtain energy and include carnivores, herbivores, and omnivores. Decomposers, like mushrooms and worms, break down dead organisms and waste and return nutrients to the soil. All categories are interdependent in the food chain.
Food Chains and Food Webs
The document outlines the agenda for a science class, including a warm-up activity, homework review, a food web activity, vocabulary work, and homework assignments. Students will work in groups to organize organisms from different ecosystems into a food web diagram. They will also complete a vocabulary book defining key science terms like producer, consumer, ecosystem and food web. The homework is to finish the vocabulary book and study for an upcoming quiz.
Levels Of Organization
This document discusses the different levels of organization in living systems, from smallest to largest: organelles perform specific functions within cells; cells are the basic unit of structure and function; tissues are groups of the same cell type; organs are tissues working together; organ systems are groups of organs; organisms are entire living things made up of organ systems; populations are groups of the same organism type; communities are multiple interacting populations; and ecosystems include all communities and abiotic factors in an area.
Science Equipment for Sixth Grade
This document lists and describes various tools commonly used in science labs and investigations. It includes tools for protection like lab aprons and goggles, magnification like hand lenses and microscopes, measurement like rulers, meters sticks, measuring cups and spoons, balances, thermometers, and tools for specific purposes like collecting nets, hot plates, and cameras.
Matter Vocabulary
The document defines key terms related to matter including: the definition of matter as anything that has mass and takes up space; the states of matter - solid, liquid, and gas; properties of matter such as density, weight, and buoyancy; and what matter is made of including elements, mixtures, compounds, atoms, and molecules. It also discusses different types of changes that can occur with matter including physical and chemical changes as well as methods of heat transfer such as conduction, convection, and radiation.
Chemical Properties And Changes
The document discusses the differences between physical and chemical changes, noting that physical changes alter a substance's appearance but not its chemical composition, while chemical changes produce new substances with different properties. Examples of physical changes include cutting, cracking, chopping, bending, and tearing materials, while chemical changes include burning wood, frying an egg, digesting food, and rusting metal. Signs that a chemical change occurred include a new color, odor, gas/smoke production, or temperature change.
Scientific Method
Scientific investigations follow a standard process:
1) Ask a question and form a hypothesis to make a prediction about the outcome.
2) Design an experiment to test the hypothesis by manipulating variables and collecting data through observation and measurement.
3) Analyze the results to determine whether the data supports or refutes the original hypothesis.
