The concentration, hardness, speed and mass of the moving particles are the factors that determine the level of abrasion. Abrasion generally can be caused in four ways which are; by wind, by ice or glaciation, through the action of waves, and by rivers. Abrasion can be found on rocky mountains, on cliffs, at beaches, streams, and beneath glaciers.
