How does soil erosion affects the land?

Soil Erosion affects the land in many ways. It can take away the topsoil of the soil horizon which is important to growing crops and pasture for its organic matter. Also erosion can cause leaching of the soil which means that nutrients leave the soil and may become hazardous to aquatic life downstream.

Does soil erosion cause landslides?

Water causes the soil to soften up and become slippery, causing landslides. In addition, excessive rainfall leads tobsuper-saturated soil, which cannot hold up against gravity. Gravity in one form or another is the main cause of landslides, and too much rainfall weakens the soil's sub-structure.

What human activities cause desertification?

Improper farming practices, for one. Farming practices are improper when crops are continually grown, harvested and the soil is not given enough time to replace its nutrients. Excessive ploughing of land may also cause soil erosion. Animal grazing may also cause the lack of natural vegetation (forest), and, hence, lack of plant roots to bind the soil particles together, and this will cause soil erosion. A term to remember is accelerated soil erosion, the removal of topsoil, which contains the nutrients that sustain vegetation growth. I believe these human activities, which are all classified under improper farming practices, cause (human-induced) desertification.
