WEATHERING & EROSION
Chapter 7

What is Weathering?
• Process by which rocks on or near Earth’s surface break down and change.

MECHANICAL WEATHERING
• Also called physical weathering.
• Changes rocks size and shape but NOT composition.
• EX:– Frost Wedging: freezing
water expands in rock causing cracks
– Pressure: • from tree roots • removal of rock layers
above. When rock layers are removed, rock can expand causing cracking.

CHEMICAL WEATHERING
• Changes rocks composition
• New minerals are formed
• Determined by– Composition of rock
• Calcite dissolves in acidic water
– Temperature• As temperature increases
so does rate of weathering

Water
• Hydrolysis- reaction of water with other substances.

Oxygen
• Oxidation- reaction of oxygen with water.
• Iron reacts with oxygen & creates rust
• Magnetite + oxgyen = hematite

Acids• Carbon dioxide,
nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxides from fossil fuels create acids in atmosphere.
• Cause acid rain.• These acids dissolve
minerals in rocks.• Can also tarnish
metals

WHAT AFFECTS THE RATE OF WEATHERING?
• Climate– Temperature &
precipitation in an area
– Chemical weathering more common where temperatures & precip are higher
– Physical weathering more common where dry, and cold (freezing & thawing occur more common)

• Rock type & composition– Hardness
– Sedimentary rocks more easily weathered than hard igneous or metamorphic
![Page 11: JOURNAL #1 List two things you know about any of the following topics: –Weathering and erosion –Glaciers –Dunes –soil List two things you want to know.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f285503460f94c4183f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Surface area– Mechanical weathering
breaks rock up into smaller pieces… creating more surface area for chemical weathering to occur
![Page 12: JOURNAL #1 List two things you know about any of the following topics: –Weathering and erosion –Glaciers –Dunes –soil List two things you want to know.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f285503460f94c4183f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Topography & other variables– Sloped areas expose
fresh rock after erosion. Fresh rock can then be weathered.
– Decaying organic matter releases CO2 which creates acid which weathers rock faster.

WHAT IS EROSION?
• Transporting weathered materials from one place to another.
![Page 14: JOURNAL #1 List two things you know about any of the following topics: –Weathering and erosion –Glaciers –Dunes –soil List two things you want to know.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f285503460f94c4183f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
WATER
• Steeper slopes, faster water flows
• Faster water flows, more erosion occurs
• Rill erosion- creates small channels
• Gully erosion- creates deep, wide channels

COASTAL EROSION
• Ocean waves & tides also cause erosion
• Constant erosion of beaches leads to creation of sand bars which eventually become barrier islands.

ICE
• Glaciers– Scrape out large
sections of earth’s landscape
– Carry large rocks & debris over many miles

WIND
• Occur in areas with limited rainfall and high temperatures
• Most of these areas have very little plant-life to hold soil in place
• Creates dunes

PLANTS, ANIMALS, HUMANS
• Minor impact compared to water, wind, glaciers
• When humans excavate land, cause erosion, leads to water pollution
• When animals burrow, shovel dirt somewhere else.
