Challenges to Soil Erosion Control Measures among Farmers in Anambra State, Nigeria: Implications for Extension Policy

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. ...

Cyclical coestraction and destruction of flood dominated flood plains in semiarid Australia

The morphostratigraphy of flood plains along unconfined reaches of the Todd River, central Australia, indicate that flood plain formation is dominated by high magnitude floods. Processes of flood plain destruction include channel widening, vertical stripping, flood channel, back channel and macroturbulent scour. Flood plain construction occurs predominantly during high magnitude floods. Overban...

investigation the behavior of meanders on flood plains in semi-arid regions, case stady: flood plains on north east of sahand mt. (shoor and garaagaj)

meanders are among the important characteristics of some rivers that flow in semi-arid regions. swift displacement along the river's flow, change in the location of the central ridge and bank erosion leateral erosion are resulted from making meander in the river's flow. meanders in river courses on north east slopes of sahand (located in 46ëš 43ì to 47ëš 15ì e and from 36ëš 05ììì...
