How are rills and gullies formed?
Rills are formed by erosion. As soil erodes a thin channel is left, this channel fills with water. Gullies are formed by running water. An area where many rills have formed can turn into a gully.
What are ripples rills backwash marks and cusps are all associated with?

What is the definition for rills?
Rills are a product of soil erosion by water, and can be defined as small incised channels in the soil that result from the actions of flowing water over an unvegetated or partially vegetated soil surface. They can be obliterated by tillage (ploughing over the rills). Where they are too large to be removed by tillage, they are referred to as gullies.

What is the difference rill erosion and gully erosion?
A rill is a much smaller channel. A gully was once a rill that got broader and deeper. There are another differences too: 1- Ratio of width to depth: In gully that ratio is approximately 1:1 but in rills width is greater than itsdepth. 2- In agricultural activities, rills can be removed but gullies can not. 3- In specific area, number of rills are higher than gullies. 4- sediment production of gullies is much higher than Rills.
