Agents of Erosion Exploration Activity
What is Erosion?
Why is erosion important to us?
What are five agents of erosion?
Explain each agent of erosion and find a picture to add that represents that agent of erosion. If you
would rather draw the pictures leave space on this sheet for after you print
Running water
Glaciers
Wind
Marine erosion (Waves)
Mass wasting (Gravity)
The last step is compare and contrast weathering and erosion, since the two are not the same thing
Weathering
Erosion
