Mapping soil erodibility over India

Catena, 2023
Soil erosion is a major environmental problem worldwide, and almost half of India’s total geographical area is susceptible to it. The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) has been widely used globally to estimate soil erosion, and Soil erodibility factor, denoted by K-factor, is an essential component of RUSLE.

Climate effects on soil erodibility

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2007
AbstractSoil erodibility data, calculated using measured soil loss from standard runoff plots, collected over at least one year and applying the standard requirements for calculating the soil erodibility factor (K) of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE), have been analysed to investigate whether climate affects the susceptibility of soils to water ...

SOIL ERODIBILITY, FALL AND SPRING

Canadian Journal of Soil Science, 1966
In a 7-year study of eight summerfallow treatments, the percentage of erodible soil (soil particles < 0.84 mm in diameter) at the completion of tillage in the fall, and prior to preseeding tillage the following spring, was significantly influenced by the summerfallow method.

Temporal Changes in Soil Erodibility

Soil Erosion, 2013
Soil erodibility has been considered to depend on soil permanent properties (e.g., texture and organic matter content). In this presentation the dependence of interrill and rill erodibility on prewetting rate (PWR) and aging, respectively, is discussed. Slow wetting of soils reduces seal formation, runoff, and interrill erosion.

The potential of digestate as a biofertilizer in eroded soils of Lithuania

Waste Management, 2020
The objective of this work was to determine the potential of using of solid and liquid digestate, as biofertilizer and soil amendment, and to address adverse unfertile soil erosion problems after analysing areas of potential use. We found a high concentration of organic carbon in a solid fraction of the digestate, which indicates a significant ...

Measuring the Erodibility of Cohesive Soils

Building Partnerships, 2000
The scour depth around a bridge pier founded on soil or soft rock varies with time. There is no method available currently to predict the scour depth versus time curve for a bridge pier subjected to a real velocity hydrograph. Existing methods give one predicted scour depth independent of time and based on the design velocity.

Nature of Soil Erodibility

1999
Inherent properties of a soil determine the extent to which that soil will erode. These properties are soil texture, soil structure, soil permeability, and the amount of soil organic matter. Soil texture consists of a mixture of soil particle sizes of sand, silt, and clay.

Wind Erodibility of Organic Soils

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2010
Intensively cropped organic soils are often subject to severe wind erosion. The objective of this study was to measure their physical wind erodibility properties. Four organic soils were collected from Florida, North Carolina, and Michigan.

Microbial Effects on Soil Erodibility

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1979
Abstract This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of three microbial species on soil erodibility. Sterilized Ames (a Typic Albaqualf) and Nicollet (an Aquic Hapludoll) soils were inoculated with species of Pseudomonas, Streptomyces , and ...
