Across

  3. 6. a sudden violent flood that occurs in a couple hours or even minutes;2 wds
  4. 8. wave washed sediment along a coast
  5. 12. when gravity, wind, ice, or wind moves weathered rocks
  6. 13. a rock or concrete wall that is built outward from a beach to reduce erosion
  7. 14. the difference between the highest and lowest points in an area
  8. 16. any of several processes where gravity moves sediment downhill;2 wds
  9. 19. a meander cut off from a river;2 wds
  10. 22. the type of weathering where rock is physically broken down into smaller rocks;2 wds
  11. 23. a loop like curve in a river
  12. 24. a rush of water that flows back into the ocean through a small opening in the sandbar;2 wds
  13. 25. a formation from sediment depositing from a river going into a lake or ocean
  14. 26. when surface materials get eroded
Down
  1. 1. water that flows over the surface instead of going into the ground
  2. 2. a line on a topographic map that connect the points of equal elevation;2 wds
  3. 5. the process that breaks down rocks through chemical changes;2 wds
  4. 7. the process that happens when water freezes in a rocks crack and expands, splitting the rock;2 wds
  5. 9. a deposit of wind blown sand;2 wds
  6. 10. earth material deposited by erosion
  7. 11. the grinding of rock from rock particles in water, wind, or ice
  8. 15. when sediment lays down in a new spot
