The bare soil surface type affects the amount of runoff because it has
no other stopping mechanism that prevents runoff to happen. Just like in the

harmful to human agriculture because it contains an antifreezing chemical
(present in transportation vehicles). When the chemical seeps into the soil, it
will create a runoff and can seep into the groundwater causing pollution.
