Erosion is a natural part of the environment; it is when it interferes with human needs that it becomes âbad.â. Even when nutrient-rich materials like topsoil are removed by erosion, the nutrients are transported elsewhere â the loss in one place is a benefit in another. But that other benefit may not be something suitable to people.
Skin erosion: Skin erosion is a loss of some or all of the epidermis (the outer layer) leaving a denuded surface. Erosion is an eating away of a surface. The word erosion comes from the Latin erodere meaning to eat out. Last Editorial Review: 5/13/2016.
