    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accretion_(geology)

    In geology, accretion is a process by which material is added to a tectonic plate at a subduction zone, frequently on the edge of existing continental landmasses. The added material may be sediment, volcanic arcs , seamounts , oceanic crust or other igneous features.

    Contact between a snow crystal and the supercooled droplets results in freezing of the liquid droplets onto the surface of the crystal. This process of crystal growth is known as accretion. Crystals that exhibit frozen droplets on their surfaces are often referred to as rimed. When this process continues so that the shape of the original snow ...

    In astrophysics, accretion is the accumulation of particles into a massive object by gravitationally attracting more matter, typically gaseous matter, into an accretion disk. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Most astronomical objects , such as galaxies , stars , and planets , are formed by accretion processes.

  7. Accretion (meteorology) - Wikipedia

    Accretion is defined as the gradual collection of something over time. [1] In meteorology or atmospheric science it is the process of accumulation of frozen water as precipitation over time as it descends through the atmosphere, in particular when an ice crystal or snowflake hits a supercooled liquid droplet, which then freeze together, increasing the size of the water particle.

    Many Hindi speakers with Internet use English Wikipedia instead. Given the great geographic spread of the Hindi language, the contributors to the Hindi project live in various areas around the country.

    Accretion is the process of coastal sediment returning to the visible portion of a beach or foreshore after a submersion event. [1] A sustainable beach or foreshore often goes through a cycle of submersion during rough weather and later accretion during calmer periods.
