whats weathering? whats erosion?
the process of eroding or being eroded by wind, water, or other natural agents. "the problem of soil erosion"
Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil and minerals as well as artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere. Erosion is the process by which soil and rock are removed from the Earth's surface by exogenic processes such as wind or water flow, and then transported and deposited in other locations.
Do you want some examples?

Splash erosion - With this type, a single raindrop makes a small crater, dispersing soil. This is caused directly by rainfall.
