Scale-dependence of lithological control on topography: Bedrock channel geometry and catchment morphometry in western Scotland [PDF]
, 2010 We propose that a scale-dependent topographic signature of erodibility arises due to fluvial and glacial erosion acting on different parts of the landscape at different times.

Assessing weathering and resistance of rock units against erosion in the West Islamabad region, Kermanshah province [PDF]
مدلسازی و مدیریت آب و خاک, 2023 IntroductionThe effects of weathering and erosion on Quaternary rocks and deposits depend on several factors, some of which are related to the nature of the rock and other factors are related to the external environment.

Determination of wind erosion next to shelterbelts
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2007 The influence of shelterbelts on the erodibility of soil by wind was studied at three chosen shelterbelts of Southern Moravia, Czech Republic – near the shelterbelts in the cadastral areas of Dolní Dunajovice, Micmanice and Suchá Loz.
