O tepedeki ağaçlar kesilirse, oldukça çabuk bir şekilde erozyonu görürsün. - If the trees on that hill are cut down, you'll see erosion pretty quickly.
(Askeri) AŞINMA: Mekanik aşınma ve barut gazının kimyasal tesiri sonucu, bir top veya silah namlusunun iç kısmında husule gelen aşınma. Yüksek hareket, yüksek ilk hız ve kimyasal tesir neticesi namluda aşınma olur ve namlu çapı genişler
(Askeri) NAMLU AŞINMASI: Namlu iç yüzeyinin, gaz ısısı, kimyasal etkiler ve mekanik sürtünmeler dolayısıyla aşınması. Namlu aşınması hızın düşmesine sebep olur
The wearing away of the land surface by running water, wind, ice, or other geological agents, including such processes as gravitational creep Geological erosion is natural occurring erosion over long periods of time Accelerated erosion is more rapid than normal erosion and results primarily from man's activities Erosion is further classified by the amount and pattern of soil removal and transport as gully, interrill, rill, sheet, and splash or raindrop erosion
a gradual decline of something; "after the accounting scandal there was an erosion of confidence in the auditors"
{i} gradual wearing away of the Earth by wind or water; disintegration; deterioration
The wearing away, breaking down, or dissolving of rock and other material by wind or water The eroded material is often carried off and deposited in other areas Types of erosion include solution, corrosion, and abrasion Most limestone and gypsum caves are formed mainly by solution Shelter caves and many sandstone caves are formed by abrasion
The wearing away of the earth's surfaces by the forces of the atmosphere and gravity
Erosion is the gradual destruction and removal of rock or soil in a particular area by rivers, the sea, or the weather. As their roots are strong and penetrating, they prevent erosion. erosion of the river valleys. soil erosion
The wearing away of land by the action of natural forces such as wind, waves or other natural forces On a beach erosion occurs when material is taken away by wave action or by DEFLATION
The chief agent of erosion is running water; minor agents are glaciers, the wind, and waves breaking against the coast
the process of being eroded (worn away or formed by wearing away); natural processes, such as weathering or gravity, by which material is moved on the earth's surface
The wearing down or washing away of the soil and land surface by the action of water, wind, or ice
A gradual wearing away of soil or rock by running water, waves, or wind Concrete surface disturbance caused by cavitation, abrasion from moving particles in water, impact of pedestrian or vehicular traffic, or impact of ice floes Surface displacement of soil caused by weathering, dissolution, abrasion, or other transporting The gradual wearing away of material as a result of abrasive action Excessive recreation along the faces of the dams has caused unnecessary erosion along the abutments
(geology) the mechanical process of wearing or grinding something down (as by particles washing over it) a gradual decline of something; "after the accounting scandal there was an erosion of confidence in the auditors"
wearing away of rock or soil by the gradual detachment of soil or rock fragments by water, wind, ice, and other mechanical or chemical forces
The erosion of support, values, or money is a gradual decrease in its level or standard. the erosion of moral standards. a dramatic erosion of support for the program. Removal of surface material from the Earth's crust and transportation of the eroded materials by natural agencies from the point of removal. Erosion is caused by wind action, river and stream processes, marine processes (sea waves), and glacial processes. The complementary actions of erosion and deposition or sedimentation operate through wind, moving water, and ice to alter existing landforms and create new landforms. Erosion will often occur after rock has been disintegrated or altered through weathering. Moving water is the most important natural agent of erosion. Sea wave erosion results primarily from the impact of waves striking the shore and the abrasive action of sand and pebbles agitated by wave action. Erosion by rivers is caused by the scouring action of the sediment-containing flowing water. Glacial erosion occurs by surface abrasion as the ice, embedded with debris, moves slowly over the ground accompanied by the plucking of rock from the surface. Wind plays a key role in arid regions as blowing sand breaks down rock and dislodges surface sand from unprotected sand dunes. Human intervention, as by the removal of natural vegetation for farming or grazing purposes, can lead to or accelerate erosion by wind and water. See also sheet erosion
The erosion of a person's authority, rights, or confidence is the gradual destruction or removal of them. the erosion of confidence in world financial markets. an erosion of presidential power
The gradual diminishing of land or soil as a result of the action of water, wind, rain, etc
condition in which the earth's surface is worn away by the action of water and wind
(Metal İşleme) Wire Erosion is a type of precision metal forming. It uses a wire as an electrode, eroding micrometres of metal of the machined item at a time. This creates a precision end product for use in industries such as aerospace and pharmaceuticals
Detachment of soil particles by raindrop impact and their removal downslope by water flowing overland as a sheet instead of in definite channels or rills. A more or less uniform layer of fine particles is removed from the entire surface of an area, sometimes resulting in an extensive loss of rich topsoil. Sheet erosion commonly occurs on recently plowed fields or on other sites having poorly consolidated soil material with scant vegetative cover
Transport of soil mineral particles and organic matter by wind, flowing water, or both Human activities that disturb the soil surface or remove vegetation can enhance this natural process
Movement of soil due to wind, rain and related natural forces that carries surface soil downslope toward streams and on into rivers and eventually bays and the oceans
Processes by which soil is removed form one place by forces such as wind, water, waves, glaciers, and construction activity and eventually deposited at some new place
The process by which vital topsoil is lost (mainly blown away by wind or washed by rain), having been loosened by such activities as deforestation or inappropriate farming Eroded land may become barren
the processes by which soil is removed from one place by forces such as wind, water, waves, glaciers, and construction activity and eventually deposited at some new place
() From Latin erosio (“eating away”), derived from erodere, possibly via erosionem and Middle French erosion. The first known occurrence in English was in the 1541 translation by Robert Copland of Guy de Chauliac's medical text The Questyonary of Cyrurygens. Copland used erosion to describe how ulcers developed in the mouth. By 1774 'erosion' was used outside medical subjects. Oliver Goldsmith employed the term in the more contemporary geological context, in his book Natural History, with the quote
: "Bounds are thus put to the erosion of the earth by water."
