Assessment of Wind Erosion | Soil Management
Article shared by :
The assessment of wind erosion requires a precise knowledge on erosive force of wind, which mainly depends on wind velocity or in other words, the energy of wind. From wind energy, the wind erosivity is determined. The wind erosivity is the ability of wind to erode the soil. The kinetic energy of wind is determined […]
