Weathering, Erosion, & Deposition By: Riley, Kaylee, and Emily Weathering We thought that this would be considered weathering because it showed the dirt broken down, most likely by water. Deposition We think that this picture is deposition because you can see where water carried away and dropped off the rocks surrounding us. Weathering We think this is weathering because wind and water have broken it down through the years and made it crack. Erosion We think that this is erosion because the water that goes though the grate carries dirt and rocks to a different place. Deposition We think that this picture represents deposition because the rocks in the picture have been carried away from there original spots to were they are now probably because of rain or water. Weathering We think this is weathering because the corner of the side walk is broken down, probably by water. Weathering We think this is weathering because Zac made a foot print and it made a mark in the sand. Glaciers When a chunk of ice gets broken of a glacier it is called calving Glaciers are good example of erosion and deposition because they pick up sediment and drop it of in a different place. Glaciers are huge amounts of ice that move very slowly.
