As you know from Chapter 2, weathering is the breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces. So what is erosion? Erosion is the movement of the broken or weathered.

A river system is made up of a main stream and tributaries – Tributary: a stream that flows into a lake or into a larger stream.

Deposition of Sediments Notes

Glaciers & erosion Glaciers can leave behind large boulders known as erratic. Glaciers can move lots of sediments that can carve striations or grooves.

Sedimentary Rocks A sedimentary rock is formed by the accumulation and compaction of sediments (rock pieces, minerals, animal parts, or chemical precipitates)

Presentation transcript:

Outside! The map below shows a meandering river. Points A and B are locations on the banks of the river. What are the dominant processes occurring at locations A and B? (1) deposition at location A; erosion at location B (2) erosion at location A; deposition at location B (3) deposition at both locations A and B Outside! (4) erosion at both locations A and B

Use a straight edge like a paper!

200 centimeters per second are The largest sediment particles that can be transported by a stream traveling at a velocity of 200 centimeters per second are boulders (2) cobbles (3) pebbles (4) sand

How fast must water in a stream move in order to erode a pebble that is 1.0 cm in diameter? ≈50 cm/sec
