What else can I help you with?
Plowing removed the grass from the Great Plains and exposed the soil. What effect did this have when a drought struck the Great Plains during the 1930s?
The exposed soil left by plowing was more susceptible to being blown away by the strong winds during the drought. This led to severe dust storms and the phenomenon known as the Dust Bowl, exacerbating the impact of the drought on agriculture and ecosystem stability in the region.
What exposes soil?
Soil can be exposed by natural processes such as erosion due to wind, water, or ice, as well as by human activities like deforestation, agriculture, and construction. When the vegetation cover is removed, the soil is left susceptible to erosion and degradation.
Where would gullies be more likely to form a field with plowed soil and no plants or a field covered with thick grass explain?
Gullies would be more likely to form in a field with plowed soil and no plants because the soil is more exposed and vulnerable to erosion from water flow. In contrast, a field covered with thick grass can help reduce erosion by holding the soil in place with its roots and providing protection from rainwater runoff.
What makes erosion happen faster?
the velocity of the erosional agent in cases of erosion being caused by agents like wind
Will grass would most likely speed up the rate of erosion?
Yes, grass can help reduce erosion by anchoring the soil with its roots and slowing down water runoff. It also provides a protective cover that shields the soil from the impact of raindrops, which can contribute to erosion.

Does growing grass stop erosion?
Growing grass can stop erosion. The roots of the grass makes the soil stay so wind and water cant make it move.
What do horses eat in the plains?

What happens when grass is removed?
there is no more grass
