If its not this, then what are you talking about?
you may think weathering it's just this but is actually much more if you put it in a science point of view
Hmm... I wonder what it looks like?
Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soils, and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with water, atmospheric gases, and biological organisms
Well, let me explain. Weathering is the process of wearing or being worn by long exposure to the atmosphere.
in top left corner you see a waterfall with a pond/lake at the bottom. this waterfall has been running for years and the water that is running down has been wearing down the rock making the waterfall more steeper and making this body of water become bigger.
Weathering is the wearing away of the surface of rock, soil, and minerals into smaller pieces. Example of weathering: Wind and water cause small pieces of rock to break off at the side of a mountain
There are three types of weathering, physical, chemical, and biological. Example of weathering: Wind and water cause small pieces of rock to break off at the side of a mountain. Weathering can occur due to chemical and mechanical processes.
When the smaller rock pieces (now pebbles, sand, or soil) are moved by these natural forces, it is called erosion. So, if a rock is changed or broken but stays where it is, it is called weathering. If the pieces of weathered rock are moved away, it is called erosion.I'm saying this because people often mix up erosion and weathering.
sorry but I have to leave now.
Physical weathering is caused by the effects of changing temperature on rocks, causing the rock to break apart. The process is sometimes assisted by water.
Biological weathering is weathering caused by plants and animals. Plants and animals release acid-forming chemicals that cause weathering and also contribute to the breaking down of rocks and landforms. Chemical weathering is weathering caused by the breaking down of rocks and landforms.
and that's the end of the science comic book I hope I've helped you learned many things.
