A GIS-toolbox for a landscape structure based Wind Erosion Risk Assessment (WERA) [PDF]
The landscape structure influences the local wind field by lowering the wind speed and thus reducing the wind erosion risk. An important parameter is the height of each landscape element, as this determines the length of wind protection behind it ...

Experimental Study on Wind Erosion of Concrete Building Surface in Wind-Sand Environment [PDF]
In this paper, the effects of different wind-sand attack angle, wind speed, action time, concrete strength, sand particle size, and sand content on the surface wind erosion of concrete structures are experimentally studied. Wind erosion rate and strength

Effect of the Type of Wind Data on Regional Potential Wind Erosion Estimation
The Agro-Pastoral Ecotone of Northern China (APEC) is a transitional area suffering from severe wind erosion. The wind data used in wind erosion modeling generally have different temporal resolutions and spatial station distributions.
