Dynamics of soil wind erosion in the Mu Us sandy land (in northern China) affected by cropland reclamation from 2000 to 2020

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
In recent decades, the wind speed displayed an obvious declining trend in northern China. Under this background, large amounts of grassland and sandy land have been reclaimed into cropland in the Mu Us Sandy Land (MUSL), and whether cropland reclamation ...

Deciphering the impact of wind erosion on ecosystem services: An integrated framework for assessment and spatiotemporal analysis in arid regions

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Wind erosion, a crucial disruptor of ecosystem health and stability, especially in arid regions, remains unincorporated in extensively utilized ecosystem services (ESs) quantification models such as InVEST.

Aerodynamics of wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
PhDThe study of rotor blade aerodynamic performances of wind tur- bine has been presented in this thesis. This study was focused on aero- dynamic effects changed by blade surface distribution as well as grid solution along the airfoil.

Soil erosion modelling at European scale by using high resolution input layers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Soil erosion by water is one of the most widespread forms of soil degradation. Since soil erosion is difficult to measure at large scales, soil erosion models are a crucial estimation tool at regional, national and European levels. The high heterogeneity

Agricultural activities lead to sediment infilling of wetlandscapes in the Canadian Prairies: Assessment of contributions by tillage, water and wind erosion

open access: yesGeoderma, 2023
Soil erosion and sediment delivery models have been increasingly employed in studies of catchment sediment dynamics in current years. These models are also used to represent the spatial interaction of soil erosion and sediment transport processes ...

Soil erosion in an avalanche release site (Valle d'Aosta: Italy): towards a winter factor for RUSLE in the Alps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Soil erosion in Alpine areas is mainly related to extreme topographic and weather conditions. Although different methods of assessing soil erosion exist, the knowledge of erosive forces of the snow cover needs more investigation in order to allow soil ...

Towards the reproducibility in soil erosion modeling: a new Pan-European soil erosion map [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Soil erosion by water is a widespread phenomenon throughout Europe and has the potentiality, with his on-site and off-site effects, to affect water quality, food security and floods.

Quantitative Soil Wind Erosion Potential Mapping for Central Asia Using the Google Earth Engine Platform

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
A lack of long-term soil wind erosion data impedes sustainable land management in developing regions, especially in Central Asia (CA). Compared with large-scale field measurements, wind erosion modeling based on geospatial data is an efficient and ...
