●Sheet erosion :- Sheet erosion involves the removal of a uniform thin layer of soil by raindrop splash or water run-off. This occurs when suddenly water flows and bring all the humus or soil alongwith it. 
for ex. like that of kerala it mostly occur there in flat parts.

●Gully erosion :- Gullying or gully erosion is the process by which gullies are formed. Hillsides are more prone to gullying when they are cleared of vegetation, through deforestation, over-grazing or other means. The eroded soil is easily carried by the flowing water after being dislodged from the ground, normally when rainfall falls during short, intense storms such as during thunderstorms. When water cuts the soil and deposit particles there and also brings particles from there then the erosion is said ot be gully erosion.

●Rill erosion :- It is a form of water erosion where numerous straight small streams are created.
