Weathering is the breaking down of rocks into smaller pieces. Erosion is when those pieces are moved and deposited somewhere else. Deposition is when those pieces settle and build up in a new location.

Weathering: The breaking down of rocks due to exposure to the elements, such as wind, rain, and temperature changes. Erosion: The movement of weathered material by forces such as wind, water, and ice. Deposition: The process of laying down sediment by natural forces, such as wind or water.

Weathering, erosion, and deposition are all processes that constantly change the Earth’s surface over time. The amount of erosion and deposition that happens in a given area is largely dependent on the climate of that area. All of the material that is weathered, eroded, and deposited actually comes from the same source: rocks!
