Answer:
The effects of soil erosion go beyond the loss of fertile land. It has led to increased pollution and sedimentation in streams and rivers, clogging these waterways and causing declines in fish and other species. And degraded lands are also often less able to hold onto water, which can worsen flooding.

Answer:
Flooding can significantly alter the level of plant available nutrients in the soil. Soil lost due to erosion can take with it valuable plant-available nutrients and organic matter. Deposition of sediments from floods may increase the level of nitrogen, phosphorus, silicon, and potassium in the soil.
