Sheet erosion is the silent thief, the thin, uniform washing away of topsoil by rain. When that water gathers into forceful streams, it cuts deep gullies—those are the ravines of Chambal. Together, they sculpt that harsh, beautiful badland landscape where little can grow.
But your textbook answer misses the human story. My chacha's farm near Morena slowly lost its wheat to sheet erosion, and then a gully split his land in two. We call that *behad ka maidan* for a reason—it's a land shaped by loss, not just by water.
