1. Weathering is a term which describes the general process by which rocks are broken down at the Earths surface into such things as sediments, clays, soils and substances that are dissolved in water. 2. The process of weathering typically begins when the earths crust is uplifted by tectonic forces.
Weathering is the breaking up of surfaces by forces such as the air and water of the atmosphere. Weathering processes cause the breakup of rock materials in the Earth's uppermost layer. Some of these processes are mechanical, for example the expansion and contraction caused by sudden, large changes in temperature, the expansive force of water freezing in cracks, the splitting caused by plant roots, and the impact of running water.
