While erosion is a natural process‚ human activities have dramatically increased (by 10-40 times) the rate at which erosion is occurring globally. Excessive erosion causes problems such as desertification‚ decreases in agricultural productivity due to land degradation‚ sedimentation of waterways‚ and ecological collapse due to loss of the nutrient rich upper soil layers.
