Presentation transcript:

Sediment in Motion

Weathering The process by which rock is broken down (physical or chemical)

Weathering

Erosion The process by which fragments of soil and rock are broken off the ground and carried away

Erosion Carried by: water, wind, ice, and/or gravity

Erosion

Sediment Particles of rock or soil picked up and moved by erosion and deposition.

Sediment Heavier sediment is dropped before lighter sediment.

Sediment

Deposition The process by which sediment, soil, and/or rock is dropped off or deposited into a new location.

Deposition

Landforms Rivers wear away landforms through erosion and build new landforms through deposition.
