This when water, wind, and impact of other rocks breaks down the sand into very small pieces.]]> 2017-11-02 18:53:23 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203078252 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203080538 These manly form by frost wedging and dissolution. Bits and pieces will break off due to frost wedging and since most hoodoos are mad of soft rock their more affected by acidic rain.]]> 2017-11-02 18:57:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203080538 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203080864 Although unknown pinnacles form by dissolution. Since limestone in the primary rock in pinnacles their more venerable to the rain so over a large amount of time these rock could be the only thing standing in the middle of nowhere.]]> 2017-11-02 18:58:42 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203080864 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203081676 Arches form from abrasion, hydrolysis, and frost wedging. To get aches wind blows breaks down the rock but water can also crack pieces off in the center in aid in the process along with the hydrolysis making a weaker material in break thru.]]> 2017-11-02 19:00:39 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203081676 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203083195 Talus slope are formed with the help of exfoliation, and frost wedging. This is due to when the change in pressure of the rocks makes cracks in the edge of a mountain and causes large pieces of rock to fall off, but frost wedging can help in the process.]]> 2017-11-02 19:03:55 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/203083195 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204120180 These form when rivers cut into the land and can create a valley shaped like the later v, given the name. This is caused but both abrasion and a little dissolution, but the water cuts though the land.]]> 2017-11-06 20:48:47 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204120180 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204120528 Meandering streams are made by dissolution, abrasion, and hydrolysis. Since in wide open spaces the soil is much more loose then it is in the mountains, rivers are more able to move around so anything that changes the soil can change the movement of the river.]]> 2017-11-06 20:49:38 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204120528 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204121272 Ox-Box Lakes are made when Meandering Streams become so curved that the river folds in on its self. However water needs to flow down hill so the stream fallows the path that takes it down stream.]]> 2017-11-06 20:51:32 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204121272 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204122085 Sinkholes form due to dissolution. When the water dissolves to rocks below to surface of earth it creates a cavern. However if these holes are close enough to the surface of earth and big enough then the ground will collapse in on to it self.]]> 2017-11-06 20:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204122085 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204122602 These strange occurrences in the caves of earth are formed by Dissolution. When water with some acidic property's make contact with some softer rock then we get these stalactites.]]> 2017-11-06 20:55:18 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204122602 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204184794 Each and every one of these are formed by glaciers mostly during the last ice age. These are cause when the glaciers move across land which changes the rock which is an example of abrasion.]]> 2017-11-07 02:18:53 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204184794 2041905 https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204185028 Mass wasting events are lead by gravity but frost wedging and exfoliation. These events occur when something big falls down a mountain, and this happens when a large chunk of the mountain it self falls off due to frost wedging and /or exfoliation.]]> 2017-11-07 02:20:37 UTC https://padlet.com/2041905/n1vsf533o6du/wish/204185028
