Rivers are classified as young, mature, and old. What are their qualities?
Mass movement is caused by gravity. On a flat field, gravity has no place to pull material.
The process by which wind rubs sediment particles wearing away rock surfaces.
Wind, ice, gravity, and water
Ice wedging causes rocks to break apart.The glacier scrapes and scratches the rock.
Mudflows, landslides, slump, and creep
A young river is very active at eroding while an old river is wider and moves slowly.
The dropping of weathered materials in a new place.
The process by which wind carries away loose sediment.
What are the four forms of mass movement or when gravity pulls rocks or soil down a slope?
