Why does flowing rainwater take away the top-soil in the areas with little or novegetation? |
|
Answer» When the forest trees and other plants are cut down, then the top SOIL gets exposed and becomes loose because there are no ROOTS to bind soil and no cover to soften the effect of falling rain. Blowing wind and FLOWING rainwater can then carry away this loose soil easily causing soil EROSION. |
