Answer:
Rainfall, and the surface runoff which may result from rainfall, produces four main types of soil erosion: splash erosion, sheet erosion, rill erosion, and gully erosion. ... If the runoff has sufficient flow energy, it will transport loosened soil particles (sediment) down the slope.

(i) Sheet Erosion : When the top layer of the soil is removed over a large area by the running water, it is called as sheet erosion.
(ii) Rill Erosion : This is the second stage of sheet erosion.
(b) Wind erosion : Wind is a powerful agent of erosion in arid and semi-arid lands with little rainfall.
