These processes are more rapid in desert and in the cold environment on high mountains and closer to the poles.
Chemical Weathering
Physical Weathering
Biological Weathering
Is a type of weathering which caused by rain water reacting with the mineral grains in rocks to form new minerals (clays) and soluble salts.
Physical Weathering
