Answer:

Erosion is the geological process in which earthen materials are worn away and transported by natural forces such as wind or water. A similar process, weathering, breaks down or dissolves rock, but does not involve movement.

Example:-

Sheet erosion by water;

Wind erosion;

Rill erosion – happens with heavy rains and usually creates smalls rills over hillsides;

Gully erosion – when water runoff removes soil along drainage lines.

Ephemeral erosion that occurs in natural depressions.

Answer:

erosion

In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location. Erosion is distinct from weathering which involves no movement

examples

Rain, rivers, floods, lakes, and the ocean carry away bits of soil and sand and slowly wash away the sediment. Rainfall produces four types of soil erosion: splash erosion, sheet erosion, rill erosion, and gully erosion
