Bu çalışmaya konu olan Çıldır Gölü Havzası, Türkiye’nin kuzeydoğusunda Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi’nin Erzurum - Kars Bölümü içerisinde yer almaktadır. havzasında erozyon riskinin ve dağılışının belirlenmesi ile yıllık toplam toprak kaybının tespit edilmesi bu çalışmanın amacını oluşturmaktadır. İnceleme sahasında, havza ölçeğinde buna benzer bir bulunmaması aynı zamanda erozyonun, üzerindeki etkileri...

The Mediterranean region is particularly prone to erosion. This is because it is subject to long dry periods followed by heavy bursts of erosive rainfall, falling on steep slopes with fragile soils, resulting in considerable amounts of erosion. In parts of the Mediterranean region, erosion has reached a stage of irreversibility and in some places erosion has practically ceased because there is ...

Wind erosion not only affects agricultural productivity but also soil, air, and water quality. Dust and specifically particulate matter ≤10 μm (PM-10) has adverse effects on respiratory health and also reduces visibility along roadways, resulting in auto accidents. The Wind Erosion Prediction System (WEPS) was developed by the USDA-Agricultural Research Service to simulate wind erosion and prov...

OBJECTIVE Diabetes is associated with an increased risk of death in women. Oxidative stress due to chronic hyperglycemia leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species and loss of chromosomal integrity. To clarify whether diabetes is a premature aging syndrome, we determined telomere erosion dynamics and occurrence of structural chromosomal aberrations in women of the Ludwigshafen Risk and ...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of dental erosion and to investigate possible associations among dental erosion and medical history, dietary and lifestyle habits in a sample of adolescents in Greece. STUDY DESIGN The study sample consisted of 770 adolescents, 374 boys and 396 girls aged 13 to 16 years. All individuals were clinically examined and answered quest...

The National Flood Insurance Program does not currently cover damage strictly attributable to coastal erosion. This paper uses the results of a nationwide survey of coastal property owners to estimate the demand for such insurance. We find that there is significant demand at prices in the range of current flood insurance premiums. Demand is influenced in the hypothesized way by increased measur...

soil erosion is one of the most destructive phenomena which cause significant ecological changes in many areas. soil conservation and erosion control is essential because of the irreparable damage caused by soil erosion. soil conservation programs will not achieve until to find adequate methods of combating land degradation and ways to reduce the sediment. therefore, we need to have enough know...
