Erosion on military lands limits Army training activities, and may cause environmental problems both at training sites and downstream. Thus, remedial soil and land conservation plans are vitally important to stabilize erosion and use the land more safely for Army activities while complying with environmental regulations and standards. The channel-hillslope integrated landscape development (CHIL...

OBJECTIVES Evaluate erosive potential of beverages, using exposure times from 3 to 30 min, and to analyse the relationship between erosion and several drink parameters. METHODS pH, calcium, phosphate and fluoride concentration, saturation, titratable-acidity to pH 5.5 and the viscosity of sixteen beverages were measured or calculated. Enamel samples (N = 90) were serially exposed to 1 ml of t...

The literature on the erosive potential of drinks and other products is summarised, and aspects of the conduct of screening tests as well as possible correlations of the erosive potential with various solution parameters are discussed. The solution parameters that have been suggested as important include pH, acid concentration (with respect to buffer capacity and concentration of undissociated ...

     It is widely known that the development of gullies causes the loss of a great amount of soil and can be considered as one of the principal causes of geo-environmental degradation. The study area of the present research is located in the eastern shores of Urmia Lake. This study sought to evaluate the rate of growth and effective factors on the area’s gully dynamic over a year. To achieve th...

Riverbank erosion is a major concern in all parts of the world due to its extensive impacts geomorphologically and economically. This study aims quantify rates riverbank Pusu River using pins method. Two sections river were selected namely site A B where straight section while situated on outside bend. 21 installed at each grid pattern. Measurement exposure taken from February 2019 April 2019. ...

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 ...

in this research, the applicability of geographic information system (gis) and remote sensing (rs) techniques was tested to assess soil erosion risk with the icona erosion model. this study was carried out in the tange bostanak area because of its variety of diverse landforms, land uses and land covers. the erosion risk assessment phase of this model consists of seven steps that mainly use slop...

Coastal erosion is an issue of widespread concern. As one of the most important economic regions in China, the coast of the Yangtze Delta has been showing a trend towards erosion with global warming and the increasing human activities in the catchment and its estuary. Currently, most published studies about coastal erosion in the area focused on the causes and types of erosion. This paper prese...

[1] An analytical method is presented for converting thermochronometric ages to surface erosion or, equivalently, exhumation rate. The method incorporates the two most important thermal processes during cooling by erosion: the dependence of closure temperature on cooling rate and the advection of heat by rock motion toward the Earth’s surface. Two thermal models are considered: (1) a steady sta...
