What is Soil Formation and Weathering Processes about?

Soil is formed through the weathering of rocks over long periods of time. Weathering includes physical and chemical breakdown of rocks without and with changes to chemical composition. This forms residual soils that remain in place and alluvial soils transported by water. Soil structure depends on particle arrangement and influences engineering properties. Structures include single-grained, honeycomb, flocculated, and matrix depending on soil type and deposition process.
