Estimation of Soil Loss | Water Erosion
Article shared by :
After reading this article you will learn about the estimation of soil loss caused by water erosion. While direct measurement of soil loss from an agricultural watershed is desirable, in many instances for example in determining adequacy of conservation measures in farm planning, the prediction of soil loss for a given set of conditions may […]
Understanding the Mechanics of Soil Movement by Wind
Article shared by :
Wind erosion is mainly a surface phenomenon and is influenced directly by wind velocity in various strata near the ground through which soil particles rise in saltation. Therefore, a brief discussion about wind structure near the ground would be necessary for understanding the mechanics of soil movement by wind. Wind Structure Near the Ground: The […]
