Erosion increases when there is a flood and when land is plowed and there is no cover crop that would prevent wind erosion.

How can construction projects increase the rate of erosion?
As more construction is going on.the soil is getting loose and as more trees are cut up .
What are three different types of erosion?
The four types or mechanisms of erosion are rill erosion, gully erosion, stream bank erosion, and sheet erosion. In sheet erosion a thin layer of the surface is removed. In rill erosion, small rivulets of running water gather together and cut small channels. In gully erosion, rills enlarge to form bigger channels too large to be removed by normal tillage. Finally, streambank erosion is the washing away of soil from banks of streams and rivers. Erosion is a natural, continuous process, but agricultural practices can speed erosion, resulting in lost soil, lost soil fertility, air pollution, and water pollution. Wind and water are the main agents that move soil.
What is erosion of metal?

What is the dominant process that shapes Earth landscape?
The dominant process is erosion (generally a destructive process). Events that increase the elevation of land surfaces are either very slow (orogeny) or sporadic (volcanoes, earthquakes).
Which type of erosion moves the most sediment on the earth's surface?
Glacier Erosion
What causes water erosion to increase?
An increase in volume or velocity of the water will increase erosion
Does erosion increase mountain size?
No. Erosion wears mountains down, decreasing their size.
What are two ways to increase the amount of erosion or deposition in a stream-table experiment?
You could increase the amount of water flow, or increase the angle of water flow to increase the amount of erosion. Both will increase the amount of the resultant deposition.
What is an increase in carbon in the atmosphere likely to affect coastal areas such as those in North Carolina?
more flooding (apex)
What human activity does not increase erosion?
Anything that doesn't produce an environment with looser soil, less water, or higher winds (directly) will not increase erosion on a visible scale. If you count walking and breathing as erosion, then every movement and act a person does will increase erosion because it will displace molecules and particles, such as stubbing your toe.
What would not increase the effects of weathering and erosion?
trees and plants protect the earth from weathering and erosion
Erosion in a sentence?
Erosion of the land on the opposite side of the river caused the amount of land he owned to increase.
What can increase erosion in a forest biome?
Cut Down Of Trees
True or false accelerated erosion is the sudden large increase in erosion that often occurs when man has disturbed the land by construction?
True!
Faster wind speeds would increase wind erosion?
Yes they can.
People increase erosion in forested areas by?
cutting down trees
What will cause an increase in the rate of erosion ad deposition?
the rate of water will
