erosion is when the ground erodes and moves sediment from one place to another. Weathering is when like waves break off rocks from a cliff or something. There kinda alike but they are different too


Where is erosion caused?

Erosion is caused wherever there is an erosive force present:A riverAn oceanA strong windA glacierIn any place where these are found, you can be sure to find erosion also happening. The answer specifically could be everywhere: there are other forms of erosion, like gulley erosion, which cause erosion away from a body of water.


What are the dangers of your house being built on a cliff?

If your house is built on a cliff, it can be very dangerous. The cliff could get weathered (erosion of the cliff due to the weather conditions), it could be eroded by the sea (strong waves can wear away at the cliff face) or, just over time, the cliff face could gradually recede causing any buildings to be in a large amount of danger as, when the cliff recedes, the edge will get closer and closer to the buildings until they begin to hang off the edge. This will continue to happen and then the buildings will go crashing down into the sea. There is no way of stopping erosion of cliffs as natural sources are the cause.


How can cliff colapse be solved?

Cliff collapse prevention measures involve stabilization techniques such as installing rock bolts, mesh netting, and vegetation to secure the slope. Proper drainage systems and grading can also help manage water runoff and reduce erosion. Regular monitoring of the cliff's condition and addressing any signs of instability can help prevent collapse.

What is an example of a change of erosion in the earth's surface that happens quickly?

A flash flood is an example of a change in erosion that can happen quickly. Heavy rainfall can cause a sudden surge of water that carries away soil and rocks, creating significant erosion in a short amount of time.


How do you stop clay cliffs from collapsing?

To prevent clay cliffs from collapsing, measures like stabilizing the slope by adding vegetation or using erosion control structures like retaining walls can be implemented. Additionally, redirecting surface water away from the cliff and controlling drainage can help reduce erosion and stabilize the slope. Regular monitoring and maintenance of the cliff's condition are also important to identify and address any signs of instability early on.

What is soil erosionwrite any two human activities that lead to soil erosion?

Soil erosion is the process where topsoil is moved or washed away by wind or water. Two human activities that contribute to soil erosion are deforestation, which removes vegetation that anchors the soil in place, and overgrazing, which exposes soil to erosion by livestock walking on it.
