The rain detaches the soil particles, splashes them into the air, and causes shallow overland flows.

Stream bank erosion
Streams and rivers change their courses by cutting one bank and depositing the silt loads on the others
During flash floods the damage is accelerated.
Examples : ganga plains, Yamuna and other rivers.
As a result of Stream bank erosion large agricultural areas are getting transformed into ravines
-
Leaching
After harvesting, farmers leave the soil bare for some time. During rainfall the nutrients in the soil are leached or pre located below the top layer.

Erosion is a natural process of detachment of soil particles and their transport and deposition at distant places by natural agents such as water, wind, glacier, and gravity.
