Physical
1. INSOLATION
*Occurs often in semi-arid regions'
* Fluctuates around diurnal temperature
* Rocks experiences alternate heating (expansion) & cooling (contraction)
* Results in exfoliation (peeling of rocks due to crack lines) & granular disintegration (breaking down of rocks into grains)
2.SALT CRYSTALLISATION
* Seawater gets into rocks through cracks
* Water evaporates leaving behind salt that crystallises
* Crystallised salt continue to expand with more salt water
* Over time, results in honeycomb weathering
3. FREEZE-THAW / FROST SHATTERING
* Occurs at areas where temperature fluctuates around 0deg
* Water seeps into the rocks through cracks and freeze
* Causing rock to expand and split according to cracklines
* Forms Talu/Scree --> Resulting LF: Block fields
4. DILATATION
* Rocks expand under immense pressure
* 'Breathing out' process causing rocks to weather
* Sheet jointing occurs where rocks peel off layer by layer
5. HYDROLYSIS
* Rocks swell up due to water intake
* Expands and cracks over time
* Anhydrite + H2O -> Gypsum
