The amount of soil erosion depends on length of the time quantity of land mass natural factors like wind temperature water and the hight difference of surround material. Slope is a major factor to affect this process more slope means much easier to drift the soil
by the slope of land " " strength and volume of running water " " presence of cover crops " " dryness and size of soil particles
The Major Factors That Affect The Amount Of Water Runoff In An Area Are: - amount of vegetation and non-permeable surfaces (development) - slope of land (grade) - duration and rate of rainfall - nature of ground (soil type) - soil saturation (moisture)
Yes, extensive and uncontrolled grazing causes soil erosion. It clears vegetation from the land and hence there is nothing that can stop the soil from being eroded away.
Rock slide / land slide / mass wasting.
If a rivers slope decreases, its ability to erode land under it decreases too. The slope determines the rivers velocity. The steeper the slope, the higher the velocity, the more erosion.
The faster the water the more land erosion as the speed of water puts more pressure on the river bank.

Soil can be washed off steep slopes by rain water, unless covered in binding grasses and other vegetation.
Yes! In fact in Louisiana, the swamplands are being eroded away and destroyed everytime a hurricane hits!
The harder a material is, the less it will be eroded by mechanic forces like wind and water. Eroded material from one place can also gather another place and form a protective layer.
If the contour lines are far apart, then that indicates the land has a gentle slope (low slope).
well i dont know but you can look it up somewhere else :) just saying .... if i asked a question why does it want me to answered it like seriously :P but whatever just go to another site or something or ask your friends in facebook :D anyways good luck <3 ---> My name is Nashalie :D bye
At the bottom of the slope?
