The particulate breakdown of rock or soil into clastic sediment is referred to as physical or mechanical erosion; this contrasts with chemical erosion, where soil or rock material is removed from an area by its dissolving into a solvent (typically water), followed by the flow away of that solution. Eroded sediment or solutes may be transported just a few millimeters, or for thousands of kilometers.]]> 2017-03-28 19:26:51 UTC https://padlet.com/gill_clara1/Changing_Earth/wish/163248396 1406601 https://padlet.com/gill_clara1/Changing_Earth/wish/163249383 Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil, and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere, waters, and biological organisms. Weathering occurs in situ (on site), that is, in the same place, with little or no movement, and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the movement of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity and then being transported and deposited in other locations.]]> 2017-03-28 19:31:29 UTC https://padlet.com/gill_clara1/Changing_Earth/wish/163249383 Weathering 1406601 https://padlet.com/gill_clara1/Changing_Earth/wish/163249476 Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil, and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere, waters, and biological organisms.

Some main types of landforms are mountains, plains, plateaus, valleys and deltas.

The Earth is made up of large plates below its crust. At the boundaries of these plates movement can occur. When these plates move, its causes changes on the surface.]]> 2017-03-28 19:46:03 UTC https://padlet.com/gill_clara1/Changing_Earth/wish/163252670 Dr. Gill gill_clara1 https://padlet.com/gill_clara1/Changing_Earth/wish/163263301 Nice start.
