Answer:

Aggradation refers to an increase in elevation of land usually in river system due to deposition of sediments.

Aggradation can be caused by changes in climate, land use, and geologic activity, such as volcanic eruption, earthquakes, and faulting. For example, volcanic eruptions may lead to rivers carrying more sediment than the flow can transport:

Erosion is the process in which rock particles are carried away by wind and water. Weathering, on the other hand, degrades the rocks without displacing them. such as glacial plucking, abrasion, and scour; areal flooding; wind abrasion.
