Landforms by Erosion (erosion is the main process) * High-energy waves * Rocks that are easily eroded 1) Cliff and shore platforms Point : A cliff is a high‚ steep rock face along the coast. Explanation: A cliff is formed when waves repeatedly pound against a rocky coast Elaboration: This weakens the rock‚ causing the lines of weakness to form in the rock face * Over time‚ the waves erode the coast to cut a notch along the lines of weakness. * The notch may be further

SOilIntroduction Soil plays a vital role in our ability to cultivate crops. Throughout human history‚ our relationship with the soil has affected our ability to cultivate crops and influenced the success of civilizations. This relationship between humans‚ the earth‚ and food sources affirms soil as the foundation of agriculture. Soil testing is necessary for knowledge of characteristic of the soil‚ quantity of fertilizer is needed so that fertilizers are used only as needed‚ not too less or too

Soil Porosity and Permeability GEO 101 LAB – Earth Science July 26‚ 2014 Soil Porosity and Permeability The focus of week three’s lab in Earth Science is to figure out the porosity and permeability of four different soil types: gravel‚ sand‚ potting soil‚ and soil from my back yard. This lab is designed to look at the porosity and permeability of these four soil samples. Porosity is basically the measure of how much of the soil volume is open space. Permeability is the measurement of how long
