Photo ID: hhrh4lSubject: Surface ProcessesDescription
Chemical Weathering; Concentric Weathering; Degradation; Denudation; Erosion; Erosional Features; Erosional Forms; Geochemistry; Geomorphology; Geomorphology; Granite; Igneous Rocks; Landforms; Onion-Skin Weathering; Spherical Weathering; Spheroid; Spheroidal Weathering; Surface Features; Weathered Materials; WeatheringSpheroid weathering of granite. Spheroidal weathering is a form of chemical weathering. This occurs when concentric shells of decayed rock are successively loosened and separated from a block of rock by water penetrating the bounding joints or other fractures and attacking the block from all sides. It is similar to exfoliation.
