Weathering and Erosion

The process of weathering, erosion, and deposition has a varying time scale but is not something that typically occurs overnight. Weathering is the slow breakdown of rock into smaller pieces can be done with physical or chemical factors. Erosion is the transport of sediment and rock from one place to another. Deposition is the settling of sediments that have been weathered and eroded to form a landmass.
