The storm surge sends a wall of water over the low-lying areas. As it subsides, it carries a lot of soil into the sea. In addition, when you have a foot or more of rain it is going to cause a lot of erosion, even without the other hurricane conditions.
Hurricane winds produce large waves and drive ocean water onto land. The shear force of the water can wash away beaches and roads. The rain from hurricanes can also produce major flooding, which can wash away areas bordering streams.
A Hurican is a product of global weather systems it does not cause 'weather'. Huricans facilitate errosion by depositing vast quantities of water in the form of rain on land causing flooding. The water gathers together in torrents which carry off the soil. Hurican powered tidal surges can also flood and errode coastal areas with wind driven wave action.
wind and water over years can erode soil and rock
tornadoes and hurricanes are rapid speeds of wind and water, so it basically does the same thing but faster
they pick up little stones then carry them away
A hurricane can definitely cause erosion, it wears away at everything. Regular water causes erosion and a hurricane is like a moving ocean so it practically destroys everything in its path.
The storm surge and waves of a hurricane can severely erode beaches. Inland flooding from hurricane rain can cause severe erosion as well, especially in and near stream channels.
they erode shorelines away and put debris in the ocean
Hurricanes can cause significant coast erosion. Flooding resulting from heavy rains can alter river channels. Tornadoes can destroy vegetation, but rarely cause significant amounts of soil erosion.
Beach erosion is the cause for the disappearance of the sand on the beach.
The waves and storm surge of a hurricane can cause severe beach erosion. Heavy rain from hurricanes can cause flooding, which can erode river channels and trigger landslides.
It is an example of erosion. See link to related question below.
Hurricanes often cause severe flooding. The water moving over land causes erosion. Waves from hurricanes can erode beaches. The winds in tornadoes have sometimes been known to scour soil away, but this is rare, only occurring in the most violent tornadoes. Both tornadoes and hurricanes can destroy trees and other vegetation, which leaves the soil vulnerable to erosion.
Hurricanes can causes significant coastal erosion from waves and storm surge. Heavy rain can cause flooding, which can cause great amounts of erosion around river channels.
Hurricanes cause erosion or weathering because, hurricanes are forms of large water. Water is one of the agents of weathering next to wind, ice and gravity. Water(in hurricanes) can pick up sediment and rock particles and spread them or move them into different places.
They can. Hurricanes can cause significant coastal erosion, which can change coastlines, and wash away islets of sand. The rain from hurricanes can trigger landslides and cause floods that alter the courses of rivers.

The main cause of beach erosion is large storms and hurricanes. With the high winds and the increased wave size, the water level rises up and washes away a portion of the beach. Over time, this can cause the beach to become smaller.
No. Hurricanes often wash away beaches but tornadoes, which are not primary a coastal phenomenon, do not cause any significant beach erosion.
wind that results from summer hurricanes and severe winter storms makes large waves that cause dramatic shoreline erosion.
