Erosion is displacement of solids (soil, mud, rock and other particles) usually by the agents of currents such as, wind, water, or ice by downward or down-slope movement in response to gravity or by l
iving organisms (in the case of bioerosion).
An S-type asteroid about 34.4 × 11.2 × 11.2 km in size, which is the second-largest near-Earth asteroid after 1036 Ganymede. It belongs to the group of Amor asteroids. Eros was discovered on 13 August
1898 by Gustav Witt in Berlin and Auguste Charlois at Nice. It was the first asteroid orbited by an Earth probe (in 2000).
The process by which the surface of the snow cover is worn away, primarily by the action of wind (see also 2.9, surface features, and zastrugi). Wind erosion is a very important factor in the redistri
bution of surface snow.
The process of removal and transport of soil and rock by weathering, mass wasting, and the action of streams, glaciers, waves, winds and underground water.
Is a landform formed from the removal of weathered and eroded surface materials by wind, water, glaciers, and gravity. This includes landforms with some of the following geomorphic features: river val
leys, glacial valleys, and coastal cliffs.
