What happens to soil and rocks that have been eroded?
Eroded soil washes away and winds up in rivers, and eventually in lakes or oceans where is becomes sediment at the bottom. Rocks can be eroded into sand. Generally, they remain part of the soil, until the soil is eroded.
In an area next to a river there are many trees. In this area very little erosion occurs. best explains this?
The presence of trees in the area helps to stabilize the soil and reduce erosion by their root systems. Trees can also help to absorb excess water, reducing the force of flowing water and its erosive power. Additionally, the canopy of trees provides shelter, reducing the impact of raindrops on the soil surface.
Where does eroded soil go to?
Eroded soil can be carried away by water, wind, or ice to various locations. It may be deposited in nearby bodies of water like rivers, lakes, or oceans, or settle on the land surface, altering the landscape. In some cases, eroded soil can also accumulate in valleys, forming sediment deposits.
What is the casual relationship between deforestation and soil erosion?
Deforestation can lead to soil erosion because the removal of trees and vegetation reduces the ability of the soil to retain water and nutrients. This makes the soil more vulnerable to erosion by wind and water. Without the roots of trees holding the soil in place, erosion can occur more easily, leading to loss of fertile topsoil and degradation of land.
What can eroded soil enter causing them to fill up with sediment?
Eroded soil can enter water bodies such as rivers, lakes, and streams, where they accumulate and cause sedimentation. This can lead to decreased water quality, habitat degradation, and reduced water flow capacity.
A sentence for the word eroded?
The soil in this area was eroded after all the trees were cut.
What happens to soil fertility when trees are cut down?
it gets eroded
How soil erosion occur when tropical rain forest is removed from an area?
I think it is because when trees are removed from rainforest's, when it rains the mud from the soil runs into the water and causes soil erosion.
Why is flooding more likely after trees are removed from an area?
Without the trees, water runs off rather than percolating into the soil.
What would happen if trees in the forest were cut and not replace?
the soil would be eroded
What will happen if the trees and plants covering the mountain where removed?
the soil will erode -JV
Can living things such as trees can both slow down and speed up erostion?
Yes, trees can both slow down and speed up erosion. Tree roots help hold soil in place, which can slow down erosion by stabilizing the soil. However, if trees are removed or deforested in an area, it can lead to increased erosion as there are no longer roots to hold the soil in place.
What are some recommendations you would offer to prevent desertification from occurring?
Desertification occurs when trees and plants are removed from an area. Replanting may be necessary to help hold the soil.
What is the main in soil?
Eroded rock
What can you do to control soil erosion?
One thing you can do to control soil erosion is to plant anything... grass, shrubs, trees. Anything works as long as it has a root. This is because the root holds the soil and stops it from being eroded by wind or water.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of deforestation. HTML?
if the trees are removed, the heavy rain hits the soil directly and washes it away leaving the stony and infertile soil.
What happens to soil and rocks that have been eroded?
Eroded soil washes away and winds up in rivers, and eventually in lakes or oceans where is becomes sediment at the bottom. Rocks can be eroded into sand. Generally, they remain part of the soil, until the soil is eroded.
