An improvement of the Revised Wind Erosion Equation by considering the effect of non-photosynthetic vegetation

Geoderma
Non-photosynthetic vegetation (NPV) can significantly impact the magnitude of wind erosion. However, most wind erosion models did not take NPV into account, which led to large uncertainties in wind erosion simulation.

Dynamic Modelling of Water and Wind Erosion in Australia over the Past Two Decades [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2022
Soil erosion caused by water and wind is a complicated natural process that has been accelerated by human activity. It results in increasing areas of land degradation, which further threaten the productive potential of landscapes.
