External Forces and Surface Processes
External forces, powered by solar energy, continuously reshape the Earth's surface through erosion, transportation, and sedimentation.
Definition: Forze esogene esempi include wind, water rain,ice,rivers,seas, and temperature variations.
These forces work through three main processes:
- Erosion: Breaking down and removing rock fragments
- Transportation: Movement of debris by gravity, wind, water, and ice
- Sedimentation: Accumulation of debris in plains and sea floors
Highlight: While forze endogene ed esogene zanichelli shows that internal forces create sudden, catastrophic events, external forces work continuously but can also cause natural disasters during extreme weather events.
Quote: "Le forze esogene si possono percepire sempre e diventano catastrofi naturali in conseguenza di fenomeni estremi come tempeste, uragani e inondazioni."
