Answer 1

Answer:

Why is soil erosion relatively less in dense forests as compared to barren, open fields? In dense forests, the tree cover (canopy) prevents rain water from directly falling on the ground/soil. Also, roots of the vegetation bind the soil particles and hold them together. As a result soil erosion is minimised.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Soil erosin is less in dense in forests as compared to Barren space Because in Dense forests the soil is hold by Roots of trees,hence it does carry away by any erosion factor,But in open space there are not trees hence the soil is not holded thus it is carry away by any factor like Wind water etc.
