The rusting is very minimal because we have a roof covering the hoop now. The hoop used to be in the front yard where it was more exposed to sunlight and rainfall. You can recognize the chemical weathering by the rusting all over the lower left bolt and on the bottom center of the rim. This rusting was mostly likely a result of the rain and wet weather the hoop was exposed to being out in the open.]]> 2020-04-17 02:26:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511968540 dantea98 https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511973340 2020-04-17 02:31:47 UTC https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511973340 dantea98 https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511977865

Mass wasting has been caused by gravity moving the dirt/soil into a slope. It also may have been caused by the water from the sprinklers since the soil is fairly wet and there is dead grass meaning there once was a fair amount of nice, healthy grass. Many times mass wasting occurs on a much larger scale, but this is still a very small example of it.]]> 2020-04-17 02:44:06 UTC https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511984518 dantea98 https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511998962 2020-04-17 03:00:10 UTC https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511998962 dantea98 https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511999089 In this example of mechanical weathering, we had a small patch of grass or weeds growing through the cracks in the concrete. The grass is breaking the concrete's physical state by growing through it. This is most likely caused by the rain seeping into small cracks causing the grass to grow and form even bigger cracks by pushing the concrete apart causing mechanical weathering. Along with more time and more rainfall these cracks can continue to grow as the grass/weeds continue to grow and push the concrete apart.]]> 2020-04-17 03:00:17 UTC https://padlet.com/dantea98/uyfah5kc29kgw350/wish/511999089
