Effect of windbreaks on wind speed reduction and soil protection against wind erosion
Soil and Water Research, 2017 Windbreaks form efficient soil protection against wind erosion particularly at the time when soil cover is not protected by the cultivated plant vegetation cover. The objective of this research was to evaluate windbreaks efficiency in terms of wind speed
