weathering of rocks in a desert due to the rapid rise and fall of temperatures
is that correct
My apologies for the repetition in the responses. Here is the correct response:

This is an example of chemical weathering, as the metal of the statues reacts with oxygen in the air to form a layer of oxide on the surface over time.
