Soil Erosion
... Water erosion is the loss of soil due to water movement. It is the major cause of soil loss in North America. Water erosion occurs when excess rainfall creates runoff that carries soil away. Runoff occurs when rain falls faster than it can be absorbed into the soil. Runoff water carries soil particl ...
