Changing the Surface: Erosion and Landscapes : Felix Publishing : 9780994643308 : 0994643306 : 16 May 2017 : CHANGING THE SURFACE is the third book in the Adventures in Earth Science series and deals with the topics of weathering, erosion and the landscapes which they produce. The general nature of change in minerals within rocks and how rocks are degraded by both physical and chemical means is discussed in the first chapter which also contains a section about soils and their classification. Chapter Two looks at the unique chemical weathering of carbonate rocks such as limestone, marble and dolomite. From the landscapes of the surface of karst regions, the chapter then explores the world below the surface in limestone caves, looking at their formation and their spelaeothems or cave formations. There is also a video website link to take readers below ground into some of the author's favourite caves. The remaining three chapters looks at the works of erosion of water, ice and wind resp
