What is the MAJOR agent of erosion that has shaped Earth’s land surface? Moving water Water moving over land’s surface is called runoff. This may cause.

Erosional Features.

 Water is responsible for a majority of all erosion on Earth  Runoff - after rain the water remaining on the surface is called runoff. › As runoff moves.

 Runoff  Streams  Rivers  Water picks up particles of clay, sand, and gravel as it moves along Earth’s surface  Small grooves form – called rills.
