Show transcript
Weathering is the breaking down of rocks on Earth’s surface, over time, by natural forces. Erosion is when land is worn away by natural forces, such as water or wind, and transported to another location. Weathering and erosion of rock can cause habitat loss and natural disasters. Different types of scientists, including geologists, work to eliminate the negative effects of weathering and erosion.
