Water erosion happens when moving water picks up sediments and wears away (or erodes) the bank of the water. It happens because water naturally wears away sediment

Why does erosion occur on the moon?

How does the speed of water in a river affect its ability to cause erosion?
The faster the speed of water in a river the more erosion is causes. The slower the water the less amount of erosion it causes.
What are 4 ways that erosion can happen?
wind, water, ice, & plant growth
How does most erosion happen in dry regions?
The erosion is diffrent like wind erosion can happen in dry places
What will happen to the ground water if the erosion process in not stopped?
Groundwater is the cause of erosion so the real question you might be asking is "what will happent to all the soil because of groundwater causing erosion"

Where do soil erosion happen?

Weathering and erosion on the moon?
Can't happen. Weathering takes air in motion (wind), and erosion takes water in motion, and there's none of either on the moon.
How cold does it have to be for an erosion to happen?
Erosion due to cold temperatures will happen at 32 F or below, as long as the temperature eventually risies above 32 F. This is erosion due to the freeze-thaw cycle. There are also forms of erosion that result from weather and from water movement, and these forms can occure at any temperature, warm or cold.
