WEATHERING
Breakdown and alteration of materials
near the earths surface, to form products
that are more nearly in equilibrium with
the atmosphere, hydrosphere and
biosphere (Reiche, 1950)
Involving inorganic process
organic activity
mechanical process
WEATHERING
Change of rocks from the massive to
the clastic state (Polynov, 1937)
Involving mostly
disintegration (physical changes)
decomposition (chemical changes)
WEATHERING
physical weathering
chemical weathering
biological weathering
Physical Weathering
Development cracks & joints
thermal expansion and contraction
dissolution
expansion of freezing water
increasing volume by hydrolysis
biological activity (root growth, hole
digging, etc)
Chemical Weathering
depends on the presence of Water,
Solid, Dissolved Gas
