Erosion is a natural process that gradually wears away Earth's surface through the action of wind, water, ice, and other environmental factors. Over time, erosion can reshape landscapes and alter the surface of the Earth.
Height above earths surface is called elevation
Mostly the sedimentary part which involves the process of weathering, and diagenesis occurs at the earths surface.
Weathering is the process that breaks up rocks on Earth's surface. This can occur through physical processes like freezing and thawing, as well as chemical processes like acid rain and oxidation. Over time, weathering can break down rocks into smaller particles and ultimately contribute to soil formation.
infrared radiation, which contributes to the greenhouse effect. This process helps trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to the warming of the Earth's surface.
infrared radiation, which is a form of heat energy. This process helps to regulate the temperature on Earth by preventing it from becoming too hot.
