Study Notes
Exogenous Processes
- Exogenous processes include weathering, erosion, and sedimentation.
- Weathering breaks down rock through mechanical or chemical interactions and environmental factors like temperature and moisture.
- Erosion involves the displacement of soil and rock by natural forces such as wind, water, or ice, altering landscapes.
Earth's Internal Processes
- Earth’s internal heat drives processes such as tectonic movements and volcanic activity.
- These internal processes contribute to mountain formation, earthquakes, and the cycling of materials within the Earth.
- The combination of exogenous processes and internal heat influences the continuous reshaping of Earth's surface.
