Glacial Erosion What route does a glacier follow?

Glacial Transport Two black arrows make one blue one. Why?

Glacial Deposition Rolling down Highway 29. And up again

Coastal Erosion What happened here?

Wave Transport What is a groyne?

Wave deposition What is this?

Wind erosion A rock pedestal

Wind Transport What is happening?

Wind Deposition: barchans What are these made of?

River Erosion - canyon Almost vertical sides No weathering of valley sides

River erosion – ‘V’ shaped Valley Some vertical erosion Open V shape valley because weathering attacks valley sides

Interlocking Spurs Vertical erosion River meanders around hard rock

Interlocking spurs: diagram River meanders around hard rock River erodes downwards
