Does rain cause erosion or desposition?

Rain can cause both erosion and deposition. Erosion may occur when rainfall washes away soil and sediments, leading to the cutting of channels and formation of gullies. On the other hand, deposition can happen when rainwater carries sediments and deposits them in a different location, such as when a floodplain receives sediment during a heavy rainfall event.
