Weathering is the breakdown of materials through physical or chemical actions. Erosion occurs when weathered materials such as soil and rock fragments are carried away by wind, water or ice. Many forces are involved in weathering and erosion.

Some weathering forces are :

➻❥ {\underbrace {Temperature}}

ᴇxtreme temperature changes such as rapid heating and cooling can cause rock to expand and contract.

➻❥ {\underbrace {Plants}}

Plants cause weathering when roots growing on or under rocks gradually break the rock apart.

➻❥{\underbrace {Animals}}

In addition, animals such as rodents, earthworms and insects often disrupt and break rock apart by burrowing and digging.

➻❥ {\underbrace {Wind}}

Wind is another force that causes abrasive weathering by blowing sand against rock faces.
