Soil Erosion➫ The removal of top layer of the soil by the action of wind & rainfall is called soil erosion.
♦ This is a naturally occurring process that affects all landforms.
❱ This natural process is caused by the dynamic activity of erosive agents like:-
♦ Water
♦ Ice
♦ Snow
♦ Air
♦ Plants
♦ Animals
♦ Humans
➧ Types of Erosion are:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=⤵
[1] Splash Erosion:-
❱ The first stage in the Erosion process.
Splash Erosion results from the bombardment of the soil surface by rain drops.
[2] Sheet Erosion:-
❱ The uniform removal of soil in thin layers by the forces of raindrops & overland flow.
[3] Rill Erosion:-
❱ The removal of soil by concentrated water running through little streamlet.
[4] Gully Erosion:-
❱ The removal of soil along drainage lines by surface water runoff.
➧ Causes 0f Soil Erosion are:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=⤵
❱ Water
❱ Winds
❱ Glacier
❱ 0ver Grazing
❱ Human Activities
➧ Factors that cause Soil Erosion are:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=⤵
❱ Rainfall
❱ Topography
❱ 0vergrazing
❱ Deforestation
❱ Human Activities
❱ Presence of 0rganic Materials in Soil
➧ Measures to Prevent Soil Erosion are:-

❱ Strip Farming
❱ Soil Rotation
❱ Soil Stabilisation
❱ Terrace Farming
❱ Vegetation Cover
❱ Controlled 0ver-Grazing
➧ Effects 0f Soil Erosion are:-

❱ Landslides
❱ Flash Floods
❱ Desertification
❱ Loss of soil fertility
❱ Silting of Rivers & Lakes
