The powers of erosion are far slower than those of corrasion, especially in an arid region, because they are intermittent. |

Abrasion or corrasion is caused by waves launching seaload at the cliff. |
Accurate data on the rate of corrasion would be very helpful in determining whether treatment is an urgent priority. |
The solution effected by the waters of a stream may also be regarded as a part of corrasion. |
These broad canyons, or canyon valleys, are carved by the streams in obedience to an interesting law of corrasion. |
