clear-cut logging is a method of cutting down all the trees in a particular area. this type of logging is most likey going to effect which earth process? a. erosion b. climate c. weathering d. mountain building

Okie doke. Deforestation definitely does not affect mountain building, so D is out. It does kind of affect climate through not absorbing greenhouse gasses and contributing to global warming, but that’s not exactly the best answer, so B is out. Weathering is things breaking down by long exposure to air and erosion is the braking down of different things like wind, water, and other things. I think erosion is the answer, because soil erosion does happen with deforestation through not having trees being able to hold down the soil, which is really important. The answer is A: erosion.
