Erosional Processes

Erosional Processes is a geomorphological mechanism that entails the detachment and transportation of rock and soil materials from slope surfaces through gravitational, hydrological, and biological agents, distinguishing it from depositional and weathering processes by its dominant role in landform degradation and sediment supply within slope sedimentation systems.
