What is erosion and how does it affect the lithosphere?
Erosin is just runoff! the runoff affect the lithosphere
How does the soil type affect the rate of runoff?
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.
How does rain affect runoff?
....runoff is when water overflows from a river so if theres too much rain it could overflow the river and create a runoff
Why is surface runoff not absorbed by soil with a high clay content?
This is because clay slowly absorbs water. It may take a few minutes+, but eventually it does happen. Since rain falls rather quickly, there is not much time for the clay to absorb the water floing on the ground, therefore there would be more runoff in places where the soil has a high clay content.
Does vegetation affect the amount of runoff?
Yes, plants absorb some of the water. It thick vegetation might slow runoff down too.
Can clay affect runoff?
Yes, But I don't know how. Thats what i'm trying to figure out right now.

How does the removal of trees affect your fresh water supply?
runoff
How does acid rain affect runoff and water table?
it doesn't
How does clay leaching affect pH?
Clay leaching do not affect pH
Does vegetation affect the amount of runoff?
Yes, plants absorb some of the water. It thick vegetation might slow runoff down too.
How does pavement or smooth rock runoff affect waterways?
Pavement or smooth rock runoff affects waterways because they create more impervious surfaces.
Does acid rain affect clay?
yes it can
