Major Causes Of Erosion. The ravines of Agra Mathura and Etawah are the outcome of soil erosion. Its also produced during photosynthesis. Due to human activities like deforestation overgrazing construction and mining etc. Anon295875 October 8 2012.
Denudation of the soil cover and subsequent washing down is known as soil erosion. The four main causes of erosion depending on science and weather meteorology. These types of erosions are caused by the impacts of raindrops on the soil surface that break down and disperse the soil particles which are then washed away by the stormwater runoff. The sheet erosion active on the wastelands of Avadh Bundelkhand and Agra region since last 200 years has so far removed 03 m thick of fertile soil cover. Much of the erosion is due to instability of land mass gravity and the balance is directly lost due to excessive moisture or water in the earth mass. The ravines of Agra Mathura and Etawah are the outcome of soil erosion.
Water wind ice gravity and temperature cause erosion.
The Chambal-Yamuna badlands covering a total area of 32 lakh ha. Soil erosion is a natural process which occur when there is loss of or removal of top layer of soil to due to rain wind deforestation or any other human activity. It is usually caused due to the removal of vegetation or any activity that renders the ground dry. Farming grazing mining construction and recreational activities are some of the causes of soil erosion. These types of erosions are caused by the impacts of raindrops on the soil surface that break down and disperse the soil particles which are then washed away by the stormwater runoff. Natural forces like wind glacier and water leads to soil erosion.
