Erosion

Erosion is the movement of material on the Earth's surface due to weathering by external forces including wind, water, ice, gravity and animal activity. Erosion is not limited to natural processes, as it is also affected by human land use practices such as urban sprawl, deforestation and and industrial agriculture.
