  • Forum task: Have you ever witnessed soil erosion occurring on slopes, damaging off-slope infrastructure or causing changes in surface water quality (when being outside in the rain)?
    • If so, please describe what happened, where and when it occurred and how it took place, and share any relevant pictures or videos.  
  • Forum task: Have you ever seen features in fields or the landscape that indicate erosion processes have occurred while you were not present (in the rain)? 
    • If so, please describe what you saw, where and when it happened, which erosion processes were involved, and share any relevant pictures or videos. 
  • Mini reflection: Had you ever heard about soil erosion and its off-field impacts in your place of residence, region, country, continent, or elsewhere? 
    • If so, please share your knowledge of what, where, and when. Also indicate the source of your information (TV, radio, social media, classroom, fellow students, family, friends). 
  • Mini-Exercise: In Google Maps: 
    • Go to the coordinates 44.320032, 23.116449 and use the Streetview feature. What kind of erosion do you expect here? 
    • What about 60.109303, 11.401310? What do you expect in such landscape and land use (also consider the location in terms of expected climate)?
