Measuring the Erodibility of Cohesive Soils
Building Partnerships, 2000The 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.

Wind Erodibility of Organic Soils
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2010Intensively 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.

Variability of soil physical quality and erodibility in a water-eroded cropland
CATENA, 2011Abstract Physical degradation of the soil increases its susceptibility to erosion by water action. However, relatively few studies have evaluated the opposite, i.e., the impact of water erosion on soil erodibility. This study was conducted in a corn field in Ohio. Some sites within the field have experienced water-induced soil erosion following heavy

Eroded soils in Chelyabinsk oblast
Eurasian Soil Science, 2006A field survey of eroded soils has been performed in Chelyabinsk oblast on a scale of 1: 100000. The areas of eroded soils and the parameters of their degradation have been determined.

Mycorrhizal infectivity of eroded soils
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 1980Abstract A method to assess the mycorrhizal inoculum infectivity of soils is described. Mature pasture soils in the North Island, New Zealand, had 6–19 mycorrhizal propagules g−1 soil. Of 31 samples taken from extensive areas of eroded soil around Gisborne and Masterton 22 had fewer than 1.0 mycorrhizal propagule g−1 soil, and 13 of these soils had ...

Effects of Soybeans on Soil Properties Related to Soil Erodibility
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1984Abstract Research was conducted from 1980 to 1982 to examine the relationship between soybean ( Glycine max L.) cropping and enhanced soil erodibility. Soil samples from the 1‐to10‐cm layer were taken from contiguous fields, cropped to soybeans and corn (

Advances in understanding soil erodibility
Soil erodibility refers to the vulnerability of a soil to erosion. This chapter discusses approaches to defining soil erodibility. It then reviews two key soil properties affecting erodibility: aggregate stability and shear stress stability. The chapter assesses individual and combined techniques for measuring these properties and thus gauging the ...openaire +1 more source
Differences in Determination of Soil Erodibility Between USLE Nomograph and Erodibility Equation
2022Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is the most applied model for soil erosion assessment. It takes into consideration five soil erosion factors: rainfall erosivity, topographic factor, vegetation cover, applied conservation practices, and soil erodibility. Soil erodibilty factor (K-factor) is a measure of inheritant reistance of soils to erosion.

Seasonal Fluctuations in Soil Structure and Erodibility of Soil by Wind
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1954Abstract The objective of this investigation was to elucidate the effects of seasons on soil structure and erodibility by wind. Little change in soil structure and erodibility occurred during a mild, dry winter near Lubbock, Tex., in 1952–53, but considerable change occurred during several consecutive winters in some
