Influence of Soil Wetting and Drying Cycles on Soil Detachment
AgriEngineering, 2022 Agricultural soils undergo periods of saturation followed by desiccation throughout the course of a growing season. It is believed that these periods of wetting and drying influence soil structure and may affect the rate of soil detachment.
