Effect of particle-size distribution on wind erosion rate and soil erodibility

Archives of Agronomy and Soil Science, 2013
Wind erosion is a serious problem, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. This study was conducted to assess the effects of wind speed as well as soil particle-size distribution on erosion rate (ER) using a wind tunnel. For this purpose, two clay loam soil samples (C2 and C10) in addition to a sandy clay loam (S2) were exposed to different wind ...

Wind erosion rate for vegetated soil cover: A prediction model based on surface shear strength

CATENA, 2020
Abstract Vegetation is regarded as the most effective measure for soil erosion control and sand control projects, which plays an important role in controlling soil wind erosion and sand disasters in arid and semiarid regions. Most of the existing models for soil wind erosion rate prediction are based on empirical results that consider factors such as

Grazing impacts on the susceptibility of rangelands to wind erosion: The effects of stocking rate, stocking strategy and land condition

Aeolian Research, 2015
Abstract An estimated 110 Mt of dust is eroded by wind from the Australian land surface each year, most of which originates from the arid and semi-arid rangelands. Livestock production is thought to increase the susceptibility of the rangelands to wind erosion by reducing vegetation cover and modifying surface soil stability. However, research is yet

Importance of Bed Liquefaction‐Induced Erosion During the Winter Wind Storm in the Yellow River Delta, China

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2023
Data obtained during a 5‐month field observation of the Yellow River Delta show that the storm wave‐related oscillatory flows are mainly in an intermittently turbulent regime (400

Combining a saltation impact sensor and a wind tunnel to explore wind erosion processes—A case study in the Zhundong mining area, Xinjiang, China

Journal of Soil and Water Conservation, 2022
The properties of surface soil determine its erodibility, the wind force determines the soil erosion intensity, and both factors determine the amount of soil erosion.

Wind erosion rates on terraces in the Mackenzie Basin

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, 1997
The extent of soil erosion was estimated at six transects on terraces in the Mackenzie Basin using the 137Cs technique to quantitatively estimate erosion since 1953. Mean 137Cs areal activity over all sites was 351±9 Bq/m2, compared with an input value of 422±63 Bq/m2, and indicated a mean soil loss of 2.2 cm.

Comparison of soil erosion rates by wind and water in a semi-arid loess soil

2023
Soil erosion is a significant process in the loss of soil/land resources, degradation and desertification. Traditionally, wind and water erosions have been studied and modelled separately. A quantitative sediment flux measure from a specific soil due to both water and wind erosion is lacking.

Accelerated Wind Erosion and Prediction of Rates

1983
When vulnerability of the soil to wind erosion is coupled with high surface winds, large-scale damage to agriculture, transportation, and human habitation can result (for example McCauley et al., 1980; Wilshire et al, 1980). The effects of off-road vehicles (ORVs) on areas of arid or semiarid soils may continue long after the ORV event if some physical

High-resolution, spatially resolved quantification of wind erosion rates based on UAV images (case study: Sistan region, southeastern Iran)

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2022
Estimating the quantitative distribution of wind erosion rates is one of the most important requirements for managing affected environments and optimizing locations to control wind erosion. This study develops high-resolution maps for wind erosion with unmanned aerial vehicles or UAV images in the Sistan region-an area in southeastern Iran with severe ...
