It is an important branch of erosion research to control soil on eroded gullies and slopes by using vegetation filter strip. Several simulated rainfall experiments were carried out in tanks filled with loess sandy loam taken from a typical gully area less coverage Yanghe hilly basin Xuanhua District, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province. The water conservation effects two different setting modes co...

This study investigates the possibility providing gully erosion map by the supervised classification of satellite images (ETM) in two mountainous and plain land types. These land types were the part of Varamin plain, Tehran province, and Roodbar subbasin, Guilan province, as plain and mountain land types, respectively. The position of 652 and 124 ground control points were recorded by GPS respe...

the study investigated challenges to soil erosion control measures among farmers in anambra state, nigeria. purposive, multistage and random sampling techniques were employed in selecting a sample size of two hundred and forty (240) respondents. structured interview schedule was used for data collection. frequency counts, percentage, mean scores and factor analysis were used for data analysis. ...

by determining relative importance and contributions of erosion types to sediment yield, erosion susceptible areas in a watershed will be identified, and sediment control and soil conservation projects can be focused on that areas. because of many problems associated with traditional procedures for identifying sediment sources, fingerprinting techniques, based on physical, chemical and organic ...

Wind erosion measurements were carried out in Nellis Dunes Recreation Area, southern Nevada, USA. Gross erosion (the total mass of sediment effectively blown away from a surface), gross deposition (the total mass of sediment effectively depositing on a surface) and net erosion (the difference in sediment mass before and after an event) were measured for 1 year, on 17 different types of surfaces...

Flow curves are generated in muti-pass torsion tests for a titanium stabilized and a niobium stabilized IF steel. Two types of test schedule are used, one based on plate rolling and the other approximating strip rolling. The purpose of the former is to define the three critical temperatures of steel rolling. The strip schedules are varied in order to investigate the influence of increasing the ...

We analyze a thin elastic, homogeneous strip under a smooth load and several different types of boundary conditions. The strip is assumed to obey either a plane strain or a plane stress type deformation of linear theory of elasticity. We characterize the 2D solution and consider dimension reduction of arbitrary order n. Both interior and global energy estimates for the reduction error are derived.

The Three Gorges Reservoir Area is one of the most severe soil erosion in China. Serious erosion has degraded the soil productivity, deteriorated the ecological environment, and influenced the service life of Three Gorges Reservoir. The natural and social-economic factors which influence the soil erosion in Three Gorges Reservoir Area include topography, geological situation, vegetation, rainfa...
