Erosion and Weathering

Erosion- Eroision is the natural process in which rocks or soil are moved from one location to another by wind, water, glaciers, etc.

Weathering- Weathering is the process of weakening and breaking up rocks. Weathering can be divided into physical and mechanical weathering.

Difference- Weathering is mainly the breaking down of rocks and when natural forces like glaciers and wind take away the broken down rocks that's erosion.

Four Different Kinds of Weathering:

- Freeze-Thaw Weathering

- Exfoliation Weathering

- Chemical Weathering 

- Biological Weathering
