When land is cleared of all vegetation, there is nothing to hold onto the soil and literally the soil gets blown or washed away. In a recent rain event this was very evident in Southeast Queensland, Australia.
In the catchment area for the Bundamba Creek there has been lots of land cleared. See the impact on the Bundamba Creek in the YouTube video below:
