The Influence of Weather. Weathering and erosion slowly chisel, polish, and buff Earth's rock into ever evolving works of art—and then wash the remains into the sea.

The surprising result: at high erosion rates, weathering processes release carbon dioxide; at low erosion rates, they sequester carbon from the atmosphere. Skip to main content.

Physical weathering of rock breakdown more important than previously recognized Date: January 13, 2021 Source: University of Wyoming Summary: Anisovolumetric weathering is much more common than ...

The film explores the processes of erosion and weathering that shape landscapes over time. It illustrates how natural elements like wind, rain, and water gradually break down structures and ...

Chemical weathering can control how susceptible bedrock in river beds is to erosion, according to new research. In addition to explaining how climate can influence landscape erosion rates, the ...

But fans of weathering and erosion need not feel left out—mountains would certainly lack some majesty if it weren’t for the carving and shaping those processes are responsible for. Nature, 2020.

The Hawaiian Islands are a test case for how island communities – and coastlines worldwide – must increasingly adapt to erosion as sea levels rise.
