Iron oxides account for the red tint to soil .
Soil creep is the gradual downhill movement of soil. The key factor in soil creep is gravity, as it causes soil particles to slowly shift and move downward over time.
Soil exhaustion in Brazil can be caused by factors such as intensive agriculture practices, deforestation leading to erosion, improper soil management, and use of chemical fertilizers that deplete soil nutrients. These factors can result in decreased fertility, loss of organic matter, and increased susceptibility to erosion and degradation.
The two main causes of soil erosion are water erosion, which includes rainfall runoff and flowing water carrying away soil particles, and wind erosion, which involves wind removing the top layer of soil. Both natural forces and human activities can contribute to soil erosion.
The primary causes of soil formation are weathering of rocks, organic matter decomposition, and biological activity. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller particles, while organic matter decomposition adds nutrients to the soil. Biological activity such as plant roots and soil organisms further contribute to soil formation.

The possible causes for a change in the percolation rate of soil include soil's moisture content, topographic conditions, and the amount of coarse material in the soil.
water and wind
In fertile soil is caused by the absence of the necessary nutrients and sufficient minerals within the soil.
Erosion
erosion will cause loss of soil with our soil conservation and wind will damage the soil ik this and im in 7th grade like really

the main cause of soil pollution is fertilizers and manure(man made). the make the soil infertile and unsuitable for growing plants.they also kill the earth worms which produce natural humus. pesticides are the next causes for soil pollution.
in the daytime the suns heat expands rocks.and in the night it contracts. this causes the rocks to crack and eventually breakdown which foorms soil
