Erosion is a complex natural process that has often been accelerated by human activities such as land clearance, agriculture, construction, surface mining, and urbanization. Soil erosion by water and wind affects both agriculture and the natural environment, and is one of the most important of today’s environmental problems. This work discusses soil erosion mechanisms, factors affecting soil erosion, the current status of soil erosion, and the impacts of soil erosion on water quality. Small and large runoff plots and field-scale monitoring methods with or without rainfall simulation were explained. Chapters’ topics are various, ranging from irrigation practices to soil nutrient, land use changes or tillage methodologies.
