Difference between Alluvial fan and Conglomerate (geology)

Alluvial fan vs. Conglomerate (geology)

An alluvial fan is a fan- or cone-shaped deposit of sediment crossed and built up by streams. Conglomerate is a coarse-grained clastic sedimentary rock that is composed of a substantial fraction of rounded to subangular gravel-size clasts, e.g., granules, pebbles, cobbles, and boulders, larger than in diameter.

Similarities between Alluvial fan and Conglomerate (geology)

Alluvial fan and Conglomerate (geology) have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Curiosity (rover), Debris flow, Desert, Mars, Sand, Sediment, Sedimentary rock.

Curiosity (rover)

Curiosity is a car-sized rover designed to explore Gale Crater on Mars as part of NASA's Mars Science Laboratory mission (MSL).

Debris flow

Debris flows are geological phenomena in which water-laden masses of soil and fragmented rock rush down mountainsides, funnel into stream channels, entrain objects in their paths, and form thick, muddy deposits on valley floors.

Desert

A desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and consequently living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life.

Mars

Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second-smallest planet in the Solar System after Mercury.

Sand

Sand is a naturally occurring granular material composed of finely divided rock and mineral particles.

Sediment

Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is subsequently transported by the action of wind, water, or ice, and/or by the force of gravity acting on the particles.

Sedimentary rock

Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of that material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.
