Eroded soils database

, 2007
In the Laboratory of Geography and evolution of the soil of the Institute of Ecology and Geography of an Academy of sciences of Moldova the Database of eroded soil is created. The base includes the dates on the characteristic of a morphological structure of a profile and physical-chemical proprieties of soils.

Laboratory study on the effects of hydraulic and granulometric parameters on the response of granular soil to internal erosion [PDF]

, 2019
Erosion is a major environmental problem to agricultural land as well as to civil engineering infrastructures. Rainwater infiltration into granular soils can lead to the migration of fine particles by suffusion.
