Wind erosion is much more common that water erosion. True False

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Idk, I think not.

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

I dont think so

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Water erosion is more common in my eyes. Whereas i rarely see any wind erosion

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following is the leading cause of soil erosion? running water wind gravity glaciers? @Xmoses1 ?

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

@bookworm00981 is helpful too lol

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

I am not sure on this one... My logic wants to say running water, but i am not sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Water, 79 percent sure. But Dust Bowl Situations were wind.

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Haha 79% But that is also what I was thinking about was the Dust Bowl, but I wasn't sure that it would be the leading cause though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be water

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

logically, yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Water.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

. The number one problem associated with soil erosion is the loss of topsoil and productive agricultural land. True False? @bookworm00981 @Xmoses1 ?

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

I think true. The topsoil can be moved from the water, or wind. The using of the soil for agricultural purposes will eventually suck the nutrients out of the soil, causing soil erosion. My best guess

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What can be done to prevent erosion associated with grazing animals? (Points : 3) keep them in the same part of the field year-round isolate them along stream banks move them around from place to place throughout the year ensure that animals move up and down slopes and not across them

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

move them around from place to place throughout the year That for sure idk if it is a multiple answer question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following agricultural methods would likely lead to MORE sedimentation and accumulation of soil in local rivers and streams? (Points : 3) terrace farming conservation tillage contour farming intensive tillage

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

That i have no idea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Clay soils are well-suited for use in solid waste landfills because they are (Points : 3) completely free of metallic minerals good at blocking out odors coarse-grained and easy to spread impervious to water

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

impervious to water I think but not sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Water runoff is slower in urban areas than in natural environments. (Points : 2) True False
