How do humans affect erosion by logging?
Human beings may cause erosion by activities such as farming or games. They may also cause erosion by cutting down trees and other vegetation that act as windbreakers.
Definition of Biotic agents of soil erosion?
soil erosion is washing away of soil or carring away of soil from one place to another
What is the major cause of erosion on Earth's surface?
- Rainfall which contains tiny particles of grit and dust; it is the dust and grit which actually erode such things as mountains. - ice erodes as it moves - wind erodes such things as soil - shorelines are erode by the pounding of waves. Related link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erosion#Causes
Can water and wind cause the loss of soil that is not protected by plant cover?
Yes, it is called soil erosion. The plant cover reduces soil erosion by water and wind.
What types of soil erosion is found in southern Africa?
well the types of soil erosion is coil cooper and timber ! hope it helps
Does burning fossil fuels cause more or less pollution than soil erosion dust storms and forest fires?
Burning fossil fuels will cause less pollution than soil erosion, dust storms, and forest fires. Soil erosion pollutes waterways. Dust storms spreads air pollutants, and forest fires are one of the largest polluters in the world, releasing carbon dioxide and other products of combustion into the atmosphere.
Why do humans increase the erosion caused by dust storms?
Humans increase erosion caused by dust storms through land degradation from activities like agriculture, deforestation, and construction. These activities disrupt natural ecosystems, leading to soil degradation, which can be easily eroded during dust storms due to weakened vegetation cover. Industrial activities can also release pollutants that further degrade soil quality and increase erosion susceptibility.
What planet has the most soil erosion?
Earth, by far, though Mars shows indications of a condition that at least appears to be soil erosion.
How did humans contribute to the creation of the dust storms?
Humans have contributed to the creation of dust storms through activities like deforestation, overgrazing, and improper land management practices that lead to soil erosion. These activities can disturb the soil, making it more susceptible to being picked up by wind and carried across landscapes, leading to the formation of dust storms.
What causes more air pollution than soil erosion dust storms and forest fires?

Why are dust storms more common in country areas than in capital cities?
Dust storms are more common in country areas due to factors such as open terrain, dry soil, and agriculture practices that can lead to soil erosion. Capital cities typically have more infrastructure and green spaces that can help prevent the spread of dust particles.
How were dust storm's caused?
From soil erosion.
What color was the dust bowl?
The Dust Bowl was not a specific color, but rather a period of severe dust storms that occurred in the 1930s in the Great Plains region of the United States. The dust storms were caused by a combination of drought, poor agricultural practices, and high winds, leading to widespread soil erosion and economic hardship.
How does soil conservation help us?
Soil conservation helps to prevent soil erosion, maintain soil fertility, protect water quality, and promote sustainable agriculture. By implementing soil conservation practices, we can ensure the long-term productivity of our lands and safeguard the environment for future generations.
How trees are useful to us in your locality?
They act as windbreaks, which helps to mitigate the effects of dust storms and blizzards. They also help anchor the soil around rivers, reducing the soil erosion due to spring flooding.
What to causes contributed to the dust bowl?
Soil erosion. Overworked land and drought
What happened to create the dust bowl inn the 1930s?
A long period (years) of drought led to the dust bowl in the 1930s. This left the top soil prone to wind erosion. When winds came, it created dust storms that killed many because you cannot breathe in dust.
