The most common causes of soil erosion are water and wind.
Erosion is simply the movement of particles by an outside force. In this case by water or wind.
An example of soil erosion would be when heavy rain creates a small valley in a soil slope. The soil particles that were once there have been moved by the force of the water flowing down the slope.

Is the erosion of soil by wind an example of friction?
yes.
Does erosion create soil?
It's the other way around. Erosion takes soil away and removes it. Erosion is bad for the soil. The more erosion there is, the less soil there is.
Is soil erosion a regional issue?
No, soil erosion is a global issue
What kind of change is soil erosion?
Erosion is the result of natural disasters such as landslides. When there is Soil Erosion in that given part of the soil, the soil's topsoil is very thin or washed away. When there is Soil Erosion, the soil will be not good to be planted with. Sometimes Soil Erosion can be good too in means of adding topsoil to the other parts of the soil that has less or no more topsoil.
How does erosion affect soil nutrients?
Yes, erosion can affect the soil's nutrients by either adding or removing them. For example, the dirt may be blown and fertile soil is left on top. On the other hand, fertile soil could be blown off and then it now has lost its fertile soil and minerals.
Is the erosion of soil by wind an example of friction?
