Quantitative Evaluation of Soil Water and Wind Erosion Rates in Pakistan

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Soil erosion triggered by water and wind pose a great threat to the sustainable development of Pakistan. In this study, a combination of geographic information systems (GISs) and machine learning approaches were used to predict soil water erosion rates ...

MONITORING AND EVALUATING EROSION AND DEPOSTION RATES BY WIND IN OASES AREA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Soil Sciences and Agricultural Engineering, 2004
Oases of New Valley governorate lie in hyperarid zone, where wind erosion and deposition by wind threaten sustained agricultural production. The annual rate of sell mass transport by wind was measured by installing BSNE samplers on the flat, bare ...

The Influence of Soil Properties on the Wind Erosion Rate at Different Regions of Kerman Province [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2020
Wind erosion is known as one of the most important land degradation aspects, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions. Soil properties, by affecting soil erodibility, can control the wind erosion rate.

Wind speed in spring dominated the decrease in wind erosion across the Horqin Sandy Land in northern China

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Wind erosion is the main cause of land degradation and desertification in drylands. Severe wind erosion affects regional ecological security and endangers the health of people. The Horqin Sandy Land is one of the largest sandy lands in China.

Freezing desert soil changes the wind–sand movement pattern [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
In the Ulan Buh Desert, which is located in a seasonally frozen region, a frozen soil layer can appear in the winter after the wind erosion of dry sand from the surface of a mobile sand dune, thus altering the wind–sand transport process.

Assessing the contribution of wind and water erosion in the agro-pastoral ecotone of Northern China with 137Cs tracer technology [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
This study addresses the critical ecological challenges of soil wind and water erosion in the agro-pastoral ecotone of northern China, both of which significantly contribute to soil degradation.

Investigation on the wind erosion resistance of aeolian sand solidified by enzyme mineralization combined with fiber reinforcement [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sandstorms can lead to atmospheric pollution, soil degradation and health damage, which the origin of frequent outbreaks is that traditional methods cannot effectively solve the solidified of aeolian sand.

Annual and sub-seasonal dynamics of a rapidly eroding permafrost coastline along the Beaufort Sea in northern Alaska [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Drew Point, an unlithified ice-rich permafrost coastline along the Alaskan Beaufort Sea, is among the most rapidly eroding Arctic coastlines, with an average erosion rate of 19 m/yr from 2007 to 2019.

Effect of biochar and cyanobacteria crust incorporation on soil wind erosion in arid mining area under freeze-thaw action [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The Bayan Obo mining areas of northern China’s arid regions is prone to wind erosion and strong freeze-thaw effects. Freezing-thawing leads to the degradation of soil structure and diminishes its resistance to wind erosion.

Experimental Study on Wind Erosion of Concrete Building Surface in Wind-Sand Environment [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
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
