Erosion is the movement of earthen materials from one area to another due to forces such as wind, water, and ice. This process occurs slowly under natural conditions. However, erosion is often accelerated by anthropogenic activities, such as [[Erosion and Sediment Control|construction]], agriculture, and deforestation (AAFC, 2025)<ref>Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. 2025. Soil erosion. https://agriculture.canada.ca/en/environment/resource-management/indicators/soil-erosion.</ref>. This accelerated rate of erosion can compromise the effectiveness of LID systems and impact watershed health.
