I believe It changes the affect on the earth's surface, for an example:
Dry sand grains are bound mainly by friction with one another.
Small amounts of water increase the cohesion among sand grains.
Saturation reduces friction and causes the sand to flow.

What is surface processing?
Surface Geologic Processes also reffered to as, Exogeneous Geologic Processes, are the processes that operates on the Earth's surface and helps to reconstruct the Earth externally. They include, Erosion, Weathering, Mass Wasting, Orogeny. Their agents are called the Epigeal Geological Agents, and include, Wind, Water, Glacier, Waves etc.
