I propose that a better question would be the invese. What is the impact of human activity on erosion?

Answer 3

weathering is a slow process. can be chemical or physical. it affects rocks breaking them further. the end result produces soils for cultivation, nourishes vegetation. these translate into agricultural activities of man.

the chemical one is slower but can give rise to the same impact.

Erosion is more rapid and results in removal and deposition of weathered materials. Where removal happens, environments are rapidly degraded and can affect agricultural or urban activities. The same can happen with deposition.

Answer 4

one thing that springs to mind is the fact that peoples houses fall into the sea when eroded cliffs collaspe-having said that its mans behaviour that have predominatly caused erosion to occur so dramatically in some regions,so i guess its a case of reeping what you sow.........

Answer 5

land slides, mud slides, flooding, avalanches.

All those things where bits of mountains fall off and block roads. bury people in mud.
