What is it called when erosion removes material from the tops of mountains and the mass of mountains decreases?
This process is known as Degradation. And if the soil is deposited on a certain place and there is an increase in the high of that area then it is called Aggradation.
How is wave erosion different from wave deposition?
I believe that erosion removes sand etc. and deposition replaces it. Hurricanes are a prime example of both.
What is the proccess by which wind removes surface materials?
The process by which wind removes surface materials is frequently known as erosion. Wind Erosion is responsible for picking up small (or large depending on velocity of the wind) particles and moving them.
What is wind erosion that removes surface soil?
Deflation
Does erosion create soil?
It's the other way around. Erosion takes soil away and removes it. Erosion is bad for the soil. The more erosion there is, the less soil there is.

Erosion is a natural process that does what?
Removes the surface material of the earth.
Why erosion and deposition maximum on mountains?
Mountains are NOT a place where deposition (of sediments) are at a maximum. However they ARE a place where erosion (of sediments) is at a maximum. This is because mountains are steep and there is therefore allot of energy in the water flowing off mountains. This energy breaks down and removes the rocks from which the mountains are made.

What does erosion do to the land?
It removes it.

What is the definition of field erosion?
When wind or water removes the top of the ground and deposits it somewhere else is erosion.

What do you call the process in which a river removes its soil and rocks?
It is called Erosion.
How are the water cycle and earths water related to weathering and erosion?
The rain removes the top soil. It decreases soil's fertility and cause erosion.
