This overview explores the key concepts of weathering and erosion, focusing on physical and chemical processes. Physical weathering occurs due to glaciation, water movement, wind action, and the freeze-thaw cycle, affecting landscapes over time. Chemical weathering involves acid precipitation and oxidation, further transforming rocks and minerals. Understanding these processes is crucial for comprehending how Earth's surface evolves and responds to environmental changes. This knowledge is invaluable in fields like geology, ecology, and environmental science.
