Interdisciplinary on-site evaluation of stone bunds to control soil erosion on cropland in Northern Ethiopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Since two decades, stone bunds have been installed in large areas of the Tigray Highlands, Northern Ethiopia, to control soil erosion by water. Field studies were conducted to quantify the effectiveness, efficiency, side effects and acceptance of stone ...

Erosive arthritis [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2007
Inflammation and degradation of bone are two closely linked processes. Chronic inflammatory arthritis not only leads to inflammatory bone loss but it also involves local erosion of articular bone. This osteo-destructive feature of chronic inflammatory arthritis is a major cause of disability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Atmospheric controls on mineral dust emission from the Bodélé Depression, Chad: The role of the low level jet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Atmospheric aerosols play an important though uncertain role in the Earth's climate system. The Bodélé Depression in Chad stands out as the planet's largest source of dust, yet very little is known about the atmospheric circulation that maintain this ...

Spatiotemporal Variations and Causes of Wind/Rainfall Erosion Climatic Erosivity in Qinghai Province, China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Wind and rainfall climatic erosivities are important parameters with which to assess the possible effects of climatic conditions on erosion. In this study, wind erosion climatic erosivity (C-factor) and rainfall erosivity (Rday-factor) were calculated ...
