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...

In the Loess Plateau, soil erosion has not only caused serious ecological and environmental problems but has also impacted downstream areas. Therefore, a model is needed to guide the comprehensive control of soil erosion. In this study, we introduced the WEPP model to simulate soil erosion both at the slope and watershed scales. Our analyses showed that: the simulated values at the slope scale ...

Water erosion causes reduced farmland productivity, and with a longer period of cultivation, agricultural productivity becomes increasingly vulnerable. The vulnerability of farmland productivity needs assessment due to long-term water erosion. The key to quantitative assessment is to propose a quantitative method with water loss scenarios to calculate productivity losses due to long-term water ...

[1] Chemical weathering promotes regolith production, physical erosion, nutrient supply, and drawdown of atmospheric CO2. Although mineral dissolution rates show dependences on temperature and moisture in theoretical models and laboratory experiments, effects of climate on chemical erosion rates in nature remain uncertain, in part because variations in physical erosion rates and lithology can o...

BACKGROUND Recent reports show that plaque erosion can be diagnosed in vivo using optical coherence tomography in patients with acute coronary syndrome. However, quantitative optical coherence tomographic image criteria for computer-aided diagnosis of plaque erosion have not been established. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 42 patients with acute coronary syndrome caused by plaque erosion were...

â increase in wastage of soil resources in watershed is a persistent challenge that with increase in population and pressure on natural sources and unstable plantation on gradient farms and soils cause production reduces on farms, and also decrease in daily ratio of farms to population can cause more pressure on lands and natural resources.lavarefin watershed placed in 60 km from bandarabass in...

Soil erosion is one of the biggest global environmental problems. Finding new innovative systems to measure soil erosion more accurately is a priority. An effort is being carried out in this study to use automated electronics in order to systematically and accurately measure soil erosion. In addition, the frequent measurements taken will help collect a large amount of data on soil erosion. The ...
