Erosion involves **moving**. It is wearing down **rock(s)** into smaller pieces and then taking them **away**. Weathering **breaks** down rocks, either **physically** or chemically, but does not **move** them anywhere. Weathering and **erosion** are responsible for canyons, sea **arches**, valleys, and **hoodoos**. The Grand Canyon was caused by weathering and **erosion**.
Rocky **coasts** frequently have headlands, a high **narrow** piece of land that juts out into the **sea**. Weathering and **erosion**, in the form of ocean waves and **water**, break down the **rock(s)** and wash it away. The salt **water** also dissolves some of the rocks in the headlands. A sea arch is created when a **hole** forms through the headland. Eventually, more **erosion** will remove more weathered **rock(s)** and the arch will collapse, resulting in a sea stack.
Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah has many **hoodoos** in it. Like the sea arches and sea **stacks**, the hoodoos are created through **weathering** and erosion, but this time on **land** rather than the sea. **Frost** wedging is the primary **weathering** action. The strange shapes are due to the different **minerals** in the rock and the different speeds of weathering and **erosion**.
Ice can both **erode** and weather. Ice can weather **rock(s)** during frost **wedging** when it breaks the rocks. It can then **move** rocks when it **takes** them from one location to **another**. Glaciers are rivers of **ice** that move slowly downhill with **gravity**. During the last ice age, they covered large parts of the **earth** and left behind many **landforms**. As they move, they **scrape** the land underneath them and carry loose **sediment** and rocks. When they **melt**, they leave behind the sediment they picked up. The landforms created include U-shaped **valleys**, polished rock surfaces, **shallow** ponds, and the Great Lakes.

**Wind** causes erosion. Wind can **move** pieces of rock and sediment along the ground. It can “sandblast” or **scour** a surface. It can lift **smaller** grains into the air and **bounce** them against rock surfaces. Wind erosion is most frequently seen in **dry** areas with little **vegetation** to hold the soil in place. The Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado is reshaped daily by wind erosion.
At the beginning of this unit, we learned a **divergent** plate boundary is a plate boundary between two plates that are moving **away** from each other. A transform plate boundary is a **boundary** between two plates that are sliding past each other. **Convergent** plate boundary is a boundary when one **plate** pushes onto the other plate.
How does this impact us, aside from where we might expect volcanoes and earthquakes to occur? Plate **boundaries** expose natural **resources**, such as gold, oil, diamonds, copper, and iron. Most deposits of natural resources occur at **convergent** or past **divergent** boundaries and hot spots.

In Yellowstone NP, extremely hot **magma** heated by magma helps create mineral **deposits**. On the sea floor, at **divergent** ocean boundaries, rising **magma** heats seawater and pulls **metals** from the crust. The metals dissolve in the superheated water. As the water **rises** and cools in the colder seawater, the minerals **precipitate**, or come out of solution, and they are **deposited** on the sea floor.
