Wind Erosion Climate Change in Northern China During 1981–2016
International Journal of Disaster Risk Science, 2020 Wind erosion is largely controlled by climate conditions. In this study, we examined the influences of changes in wind speed, soil wetness, snow cover, and vegetation cover related to climate change on wind erosion in northern China during 1981–2016.
