The Seven Sisters Country Park Project Introduction This project is about the Cuckmere Estuary and the physical features of The Seven Sisters Park. I will also talk about the flooding of the park and the courses of action that could be taken if I ran the park. In this project I will assess whether or not the park is well managed in my opinion. Physical Features Of The Park- The park has many interesting physical features that make it a brilliant and unique landscape. The Cuckmere

Introduction to Physical Geography Homework: Chapter 15 Key Terms and Concepts (1-24) 1. Denudation is the total effect of all actions (weathering‚ mass wasting‚ and erosion) that lower the surface of the continents. 2. Weathering- the physical and chemical disintegration of rock that is exposed to the atmosphere. Mass-wasting- the short-distance down slope movement of weathered rock under the direct influence of gravity; also called mass movement. Erosion- detachment‚ removal‚ and transportation

Everything on Earth cannot stay the same‚ except for the amount of mass on the planet. Even Earth itself changes. Throughout history‚ our planet’s land structures have changed drastically. Hills were formed and terrain was flattened. All of this was because of erosion. Erosion is the process of Earth being weathered down. The word “erosion” originates from the Latin word‚ “erosionem” which means “gnawing away.” Erosion is when forces of nature “gnaw away” at the Earth and cause the ground to move
Premium Soil Erosion Geomorphology
Landslides When a lot of soil‚ rocks and other stuff slides down a hill it is called a landslide. Landslides are caused by rain and melting snow that goes into cracks in the earth on top of a mountain or hill. Then the earth is weakened because the water makes the soil loose. Landslides can also be caused by erosion. Erosion is when things like a river or mining slowly eats away the bottom of a hill or slope. The top of the hill is no longer supported by the bottom. The loose soil can be set off

It also refers to the increase in the size of land area occupied by urban settlements. To cope with urbanization within a drainage basin‚ urban development and deforestation are carried out‚ which affect flows to and within a river channel. Other factors like drainage density‚ climate‚ area of drainage
