Clinical Studies of Dental Erosion and Erosive Wear [PDF]
We define <i>erosion </i>as apartial demineralisation of enamel or dentine by intrinsic or extrinsic acidsand <i>erosive tooth wear</i> as the accelerated loss of dental hard tissue through the combined effect of erosion and mechanical wear (abrasion and attrition) on the tooth surface.

Spatiotemporal Variations of the Rainfall Erosivity with Considering Snow Cover Correction Coefficient in the Iranian Part of the Caspian Sea Basin [PDF]
Introduction and ObjectiveAwareness of the pattern of spatial and temporal variations of the rainfall erosivity is essential for improving soil erosion estimates, especially considering snow cover in different months. In the Caspian Sea Basin, due to the

Dental erosion is described as an irreversible loss of dental hard tissue resulting from exposure to non-bacterial acids or chelating substances. It may be caused by exogenous or endogenous factors. In the former case, food, drink, as well as the environment might be sources of acids; in the latter, acids flowing into the oral cavity from the stomach ...

Evaluating Rain Erosivity Indices Using Geostatistical Techniques in GIS Environment (Case Study: Golestan Province) [PDF]
Today, Soil erosion is considered as one of the important issues of watershed management at the national and global levels. Estimating risk of soil reduction and its spatial distribution is one of the key factors for successful assessment of soil erosion.

Spatiotemporal variation and tendency analysis on rainfall erosivity in the Loess Plateau of China
Rainfall erosivity is an important factor to be considered when predicting soil erosion. Precipitation data for 1971–2010 from 39 stations located in the Loess Plateau of China were collected to calculate the spatiotemporal variability of rainfall ...
