This brace is superior to any other off the shelf brace that I have seen because of the design and orthotic component. Don't let the cost deter you, this brace far outshines any other brace on the market and is worth every penny. I recommend the Badger Brace for all my ankle and foot patients.
Chemical weathering can change the physical shape of rock as well as its chemical composition. when water enters along the joints in a rock, it weathers the corners and edges most rapidly. rock have a greater surface area than the faces have. As a result, the corners and edges become more rounded.
Weathering and erosion. Weathering is the process where rock is dissolved, worn away or broken down into smaller and smaller pieces. There are mechanical, chemical and organic weathering processes. Organic weathering happens when plants break up rocks with their growing roots or plant acids help dissolve rock. Once the rock has been weakened and broken up by weathering it is ready for erosion. Erosion happens when rocks and sediments are picked up and moved to another place by ice, water, wind or gravity. Mechanical weathering physically breaks up rock. One example is called frost action or frost shattering. Water gets into cracks and joints in bedrock.
