Introduction Soil erosion is one form of soil degradation along with soil compaction‚ low organic matter‚ loss of soil structure‚ poor internal drainage‚ salinisation‚ and soil acidity problems. These other forms of soil degradation‚ serious in themselves‚ usually contribute to accelerated soil erosion. Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process on all land. The agents of soil erosion are water and wind‚ each contributing a significant amount of soil loss each year in Ontario. Soil erosion may be

Erosion is the name of the process which break the things like lands and continents down. The total process of weathering and breaking down is known as denudation. Commonly‚ through the process of erosion‚ the large things get broke down into some smaller pieces. The boulder turns into sand. Both the processes of weathering and erosion usually happen in the direction of downhill. The process weathering breaks up the rocks and therefore the sands are carried away by the process of erosion. Types

Throughout the world soil is constantly being eroded. There are three major principles that can cause soil to erode‚ leading to soil degradation. Over-cultivation‚ overgrazing‚ and deforestation have huge impacts on the degradation of the soil. There are‚ however‚ actions that can be taken to preserve or correct the conservation of soil. To further understand the prevention of degradation‚ we must fully comprehend the major causes of soil erosion. One major cause of soil erosion is over-cultivation

SOIL EROSION Janeen Uy I BS MANAGEMENT ES 10 J Submitted to: Dr. Severino Salmo III March 8‚ 2012 Soil is found on the Earth’s crust and formed through weathering and decay of organisms. It may be considered dirt to a lot of people but it is highly an important tool for our survival. The soil holds the roots of the plants where nutrients are stored. It is important since it enables the soil to store and regulate the flow of water‚ filters the pollutants and improves the soil’s quality

is gully erosion? Gully erosion is the removal of soil along drainage lines by surface water runoff. Once started‚ gullies will continue to move by headward erosion or by slumping of the side walls unless steps are taken to stabilise the disturbance. Repair work done in the early stages of newly formed gullies is easier and more economical than letting the problem go unchecked for too long. Large gullies are difficult and costly to repair. What causes gully erosion ? Gully erosion occurs when

What is Soil? Soil is the surface of the earth’s crust where plants have their roots and where many small animals make their home. It is also a result of the breakdown of rocks. Formation of Soil Soil is formed when rocks break down into very small particles by various processes such as weathering. There are two types of weathering: Physical Weathering and Chemical Weathering. Physical Weathering arises from the heating and cooling‚ the wetting and drying‚ and the freezing and

Soil and Its Components Research Paper SOIL AND ITS COMPONENTS Soil is everywhere. It is abundant throughout the earth and contains most of the worlds diversity. Soil is full of life. It is actually believed that a handful of soil may consist of more living organisms than there are on this Earth. GENERAL DESCRIPTION Soil is a natural body comprised of solids (minerals and organic matter)‚ liquid‚ and gases that occurs on the land surface. (Natural Resources Conservation Service‚ 2013)
