particles by water erosion‚ losing great amounts of soil where the vegetation cover is thinnest. Plant roods bind the soil‚ while leaves protect it from the impact of heavy rain whilst layers of humus (leaf matter) helps to absorb rainfall and reduce runoff of soil into small rivulets. (small stream.) Any sort of slope will make water erosion more severe‚ as water attains more force thus dislodging plants and more soil. If the water is evenly seething and eroding the soil‚ this is known as “sheet erosion”The

The WMM model of memory Atkinson’s and Shiffrin’s (1968) multi-store model was extremely successful in terms of the amount of research it generated. However‚ as a result of this research‚ it became apparent that there were a number of problems with their ideas concerning the characteristics of short-term memory. Building on this research‚ Baddeley and Hitch (1974) developed an alternative model of short-term memory which they called working memory. There are three main components to the original
