Salix gordejevii females exhibit more resistance against wind erosion than males under aeolian environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Effects of wind erosion on growth and adaptability have been widely reported in many plants, but little attention has been paid to dioecious plants. Recent studies have shown that sex-specific responses to environmental changes in many plants exist.

Control of dust from tailings pond using conventional halides and polymer materials

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2021
Mine tailings, the byproducts of mineral processing, are special solid wastes generally classified as loose sandy silts or silty sands that are vulnerable to wind erosion, especially in arid and semiarid regions.

Geomorphic surfaces of eastern lake Urmia Playa and their influence on dust storms

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2019
Lake Urmia is one of the most important salt lakes in the world and the largest in Iran. At present, because of the recession of Lake Urmia and deposition of lacustrine sediments on the lake bed, a large part of the surrounding areas has become flat ...

Effects of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) on the Reinforcement of Sand by Microbial-Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP)

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a new technology used for reinforcing soils through microbial mineralization. However, the existing MICP treatment technology is more suiTable for deeper soils due to its high permeability.

The Effect of Vegetation Pattern, Biochar and Powdery Walnut Shell on Wind Erosion, Using Wind Tunnel [PDF]

open access: yesمدیریت بیابان, 2019
Dust emissions by wind have significant implications for human health and ecosystems. The addition of effective materials in degraded soils is a suitable method for stabilizing soil accumulation, which can lead to reduced dust emission.
