â¢ Erosion and deposition are continuous geological processes that are natural and result in relief features seen over the surface of the earth. â¢ If erosion is seen as a sequence of events, deposition takes place at last when the rock particles finally settle down on the surface of earth.
The process of erosion is complete when the journey of all particles falling and flowing under gravity is done with and all the sedimentation gets deposited and settles on the surface. The final process is the process of deposition. Technically speaking, deposition is a part of the process of erosion. If erosion can be thought of as a sequence, it includes detachment, entrainment, transport, and finally deposition. Detachment is the end process of weathering that finally results in loosening of rock particles.
