I cannot see what the simulation is, but weathering changes the earth's surface. The weathering process causes rocks to disintegrate, move to lower elevations due to gravity, and be carried by water and wind. Sediment is then trapped in depressions in the ground where it can become buried deeply. As a result, the rock begins to physically break down and is cemented together with other pieces of rock, along with the remains of plants and animals.
