SOIL EROSION: The process by which top layer of the soil gets weathered away by agents like wind, water, glaciers is called as soil erosion.

☆following are three types of soil erosion:

●Sheet erosion: Sheet erosion involves the removal of a uniform thin layer of soil by raindrop splash or water run-off.

●Gullies erosion: Gully erosion occurs when runoff water accumulates, and then rapidly flows in narrow channels during or immediately after heavy rains or melting snow, removing soil to a considerable depth.
