Across
  1. 2. large amounts of deposited sand
  2. 3. oxygen/acids are other agents of this weathering
  3. 7. the process of breaking down rocks and minerals
  4. 9. left behind after the removal of soil
  5. 10. refers to how steep the land is
  6. 13. a curved lake
  7. 14. process of depositing sediments
  8. 15. mass of soil/rock that slides down mountains
  9. 17. a large body of water that flows into an ocean or lake
  10. 18. patterns of alternating beds
  11. 20. the path that a river or stream follows
  12. 23. flat land by a river that tends to flood
  13. 24. a stream with many channels that criss-cross
  14. 28. downhill flow of rocks/sediment due to gravity
  15. 29. common to find this in repeating layers
Down
  1. 1. formed by sediments eroded from riverbanks
  2. 4. S-shaped curves in a river
  3. 5. important resource with rich deposited sand
  4. 6. dark traces of old meanders
  5. 8. the source of a river
  6. 10. soil particles become surrounded by water and slide
  7. 11. a weathering caused by freezing water
  8. 12. moving sediments by wind, water, ice, or gravity
  9. 16. also called physical weathering
  10. 19. formed by sediments that settle by the inside bank
  11. 21. "able to change shape without breaking"
  12. 22. mudflows on and around a volcano
  13. 25. large amount of rock splitting off a landform
  14. 26. a small river
  15. 27. rocks/sediment and water/plants flow down a mountain
