At first glance, water erosion can be said to be destructive since it "takes away" soil and/or minerals to wherever it is that water flows down to.

However it can also be constructive since such a process changes the environment and this change creates imbalances and differences from what that environment was before. Thus there is the possibility of a new species being able to exist on that area because of the effect of water erosion (but that is getting way ahead in terms of thinking)
