Wind erosion: Wind erosion is the removal soil particles by the force and kinetic energy of the wind. These soil particles are transported and deposited when the wind energy drops.
Water erosion: Water erosion is caused by the kinetic energy of rain falling on the soil surface and by the mechanical force of runoff.
Gravity erosion: Mass movement of soil occurs on steep slopes under the influence of gravity. The process involves the transfer of slope-forming materials from higher to lower grounds due to self weight.
