Relative Erodibility of Three Loess-Derived Soils in Southwestern Iowa

Modeling of piping erosion in loess soils

Extended abstract Introduction Piping erosion is one of the common water erosions usually occurs in soil with low infiltration and soluble minerals that finally changes landscape. Different factors control its occurrence and development. To predict piping occurrence/hazard through modeling, effective factors should be prioritized and considered as inputs of the model. The present study...

wheat cultivation effect on inorganic p forms in loess-derived soils of golestan province

knowledge of the phosphorus (p) forms is essential for understanding the behavior of phosphorus. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of wheat cultivation on different inorganic p forms of soil. a greenhouse factorial experiment in a completely randomized design was carried out with three replications in 20 soil types and plantation at two levels (with and without plantation). th...

Measuring Erodibility of Cohesive Soils Using Laboratory Submerged Jet Test

Shigella flexneri causes a severe form of bacillary dysentery characterized by cramping, diarrhea, and fever. S. flexneri uses a type three seceretion system (TTSS) to invade the colonic epithelium by injecting effector proteins directly into the host cell cytoplasm. The TTSS consists of a basal body, spanning both the outer and inner membranes, and a surface exposed needle. After the proper en...
