, 1989 Excerpts from the report: Accelerated soil erosion by wind is the most dramatic form of soil erosion. It was the dust storms of the 1930’s that focused national attention on the problem of soil erosion. This bulletin details the scope of erosion by wind in the United States, describes the conditions that allow erosion, and shows how hundreds of ...

Soil Property Effects on Wind Erosion of Organic Soils
International Symposium on Erosion and Landscape Evolution (ISELE), 18-21 September 2011, Anchorage, Alaska, 2011Abstract Histosols (also known as organic soils, mucks, or peats) are soils that are dominated by organic matter (OM > 20%) in half or more of the upper 80 cm. Forty two states have a total of 21 million ha of Histosols in the United States. These soils, when intensively cropped, are subject to wind erosion resulting in loss of crop productivity and ...

Automated system for soil wind erosion studies
Computers and Electronics in Agriculture, 2019Abstract Wind erosion is a natural soil degradation process that threatens agriculture in many locations. We have used several different methods, including wind tunnels, to analyze this type of soil erosion. In this paper we present a new wind tunnel design that enables very simple analysis of soil wind erosion.

The Effects on Potential for Wind Erosion of Soil
1988Just as drought severity and frequency and biomass productivity are affected by climatic change (Section 2), so is soil degradation. Wind erosion of soil is considered here as it is a major soil degradation process in Saskatchewan. About 60% of the total annual soil loss due to wind and water on the Canadian Prairies can be ascribed to wind erosion ...

Wind erosion of a soil in north Canterbury
New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 1988Abstract Measurements were made of soil loss from an overdrilled and heavy‐rolled paddock supporting lucerne on a Glasnevin soil in north Canterbury during strong north‐westerly winds on 17 and 18 April 1981. Seventy t/ha of topsoil was transported and deposited in the lee of a windbreak on the downwind side of the source paddock ...

Wind Erosion of Soils Burned by Wildfire
International Symposium on Erosion and Landscape Evolution (ISELE), 18-21 September 2011, Anchorage, Alaska, 2011Wind erosion and aeolian transport processes are largely unstudied in the post-wildfire environment, but recent studies have shown that wind erosion can play a major role in burned landscapes. A wind erosion monitoring system was installed immediately following a wildfire in southeastern Idaho, USA to measure wind erosion from the burned area (Figure 1)

Soil erosivity by wind in moderate climates
Ecological Modelling, 1994Abstract A new computation method of the “soil erosivity” as an important and representative scalar description quantity for the steering influence of the actual or averaged regional climatic conditions on wind erosion is proposed, which is based on the combined application of two models. Erosivity describes the combined erosive action of wind stress

WIND EROSION OF CRUSTED SOIL SEDIMENTS
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 1996Saltating particles increase the rate of dust release from sediments in arid and semi-arid areas. They also break interparticle bonds in aggregated and crusted soils, thereby increasing the number of particles available for entrainment. This pilot study examines rates of erosion in relation to the flux of saltating grains for three crusted sediments of

ABSTRACT WIND erosion on agricultural lands can be reduced if the soil surface is protected with crop residues. In evaluating the influence of residues on wind erosion, previous research has expressed residues of various crops as an equivalent of flat, small grain.

Abstract Measurements of wind erosion from fields are limited, but with recently developed erosion samplers, it is possible to determine soil losses from natural winds. Erosion of soils by wind was measured in five states.
