Wind Speed and Vegetation Coverage in Turn Dominated Wind Erosion Change With Increasing Aridity in Africa

open access: yesEarth's Future
Wind erosion is one of the main causes of land degradation and desertification. Clarifying the spatiotemporal variations of wind erosion and the dominant factors of its spatial characteristics and the temporal trend will contribute to the establishment ...

Large‐scale deployment of grass in crop rotations as a multifunctional climate mitigation strategy [PDF]

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 15, Issue 2, Page 166-184, February 2023., 2023
The agriculture sector can contribute to climate change mitigation by reducing GHG emissions, increasing carbon sequestration, and substituting GHG intensive materials with biomass. The sector also needs to address environmental impacts caused by historic and current practices.

Validation of WEQ, RWEQ and WEPS wind erosion for different arable land management systems in the Argentinean Pampas

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2008
AbstractWind erosion is an important soil degradation process in the semi‐arid Pampas of Argentina, but no attempts have been made to predict the process in this region. One limitation for the use of event‐based wind erosion prediction models is the lack of reliable climatic data to initiate these models.

Evaluation of freeze-thaw wind erosion and analysis of influencing factors on the Tibetan Plateau based on the improved RWEQ [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao
Freeze-thaw wind erosion refers to the process in which temperature fluctuations cause changes in the surface structure, significantly impacting on the formation of surface landform and soil properties. However, due to the particularity and complexity of
