Description

group of processes that change physical & chemical character of rocks at or near earth's surface
Physical picking up / removal of rock particles by water, ice, or wind.
A layer of weathered, unconsolidated material on top of bedrock
Physical breaking up of rock material but does not change composition
decomposition of rock from exposure of water and atmospheric gases. New chemical compounds form
different rock types weather at different rates
produced from weathering products of pre-existing rocks or accumulated biological matter
precipitation of solid material on the surface of the grains, filling the pore spaces and binging grains together
coarse, ANGULAR gravel sized fragments cemented together
ROUNDED gravel sized fragments cemented together
Hard compact, fine grained, formed almost entirely of silica
Sedimentary rock composed of compaction of decayed plant material
occurs during transport due to abrasion, grains hit and scrap against each other
occurs as sediment is separated according to grain size or shape by transport agents, specifically water
fine grained clastic sedimentary rock, splits into thin layers, surface rock is smooth
composed of calcite
burial, the weight of the overlying sediment overburdens and packs grains closer together, reducing pore space
made up of mudstone
very slow downslope movement of soil. Most widespread mass wasting process, occurs on entire land surface
involving unconsolidated material where coarse material (gravel, boulders) is spread dominant
slow to rapid mass wasting of fine-grained material including sand, silt and clay. It moves downslope as a vicious fluid
a downhill movement of masses of bedrock, rock debris or soil, driven by the pull of gravity
blocks of bedrock breaks free and falls can bounce off cliff
rapid sliding of a mass of bedrock along an inclined surface of weakness
flat valley floor composed of sediment deposited by the stream
