| Abstract | Erosion is an important process that removes Earth materials from a source area then transports and deposits them somewhere else. Understanding the timing, rate, and magnitude of erosion is fundamental to the work of nearly all fields of geosciences and is critical to predict and identify water, hydrocarbon, and mineral resources. It has been particularly difficult for geologists to quantify the effect that vegetation has on erosion because in modern landscapes vegetation is ubiquitous and diffi |
