Pavement or smooth rock runoff affects waterways because they create more impervious surfaces.
Yes, plants absorb some of the water. It thick vegetation might slow runoff down too.
Erosin is just runoff! the runoff affect the lithosphere
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)
a particular soil's ability to soak up moisture affects runoff rate. Sandy soils soak up a lot of water, so usually have a low runoff rate. Clay is very reluctant to take in water, so water runs off of it - it has a high runoff rate.

Vegetation
An increase in storm runoff to rivers most likely would affect ground water by reducing the amount of infiltration and groundwater recharge. This is where water moves downward from surface water to ground water.
other soils have a poor resistance to erosion. A slope can increase the affects of erosion, obviously, because it increases speed, and destruction of the runoff and sediment.
....runoff is when water overflows from a river so if theres too much rain it could overflow the river and create a runoff
Urbanization generally means more impermeable surfaces, like concrete. This increases the amount of runoff (rain going to rivers) which means an increase in the amount (and velocity) of discharge.
