I’m inferring that the channeled scablands in Washington were formed through geological processes (like erosion) and natural disasters. (like a flood)

I learned through my deposition station and my wave erosion station that water can cause erosion. This landform has to be formed by erosion because with weathering there would be sediment scattered around and if there was deposition the land would not be fully solid. The channeled scablands were formed through a giant flood running through an ordinary landform forming this.

People could use it for farming if they want to because of how fertile it was.

The water absorbed the soil and moved out without dropping it.

When the topsoil was stolen no one was able to farm on it. it was torn up and it stayed that way up until today

My claim is that erosion and weathering change the earth in different ways. Erosion takes away land and weathering breaks the land.

My evidence is that erosion can change it because when water goes through dirt it absorbs some of that dirt and then gets a brownish tint, then some of the soil is eroded and the water and the soil are changed through erosion. Weathering can also change the earth because if a softer material like a sugar cube scrapes across a rougher material like sandpaper it will weather off some of the softer material. My evidence is from the workstations Mechanical weathering and soil erosion

My reasoning is that my claim is proven because of the 2 different experiments on different processes have different outcomes that change the earth in different ways
