investigation of desertification trend requires an understanding of phenomena that create changes singly or action and reaction together in an area that these changes were led to the desertification and land degradation. in the investigation of pedological criterion affecting on land degradation in alluvial fans, first, the map of units was created by overlaying and crossing maps of slope class...

desertification is the consequence of series of processes in which climate change and human activities are more important factors than others. arid and semi-arid areas have occupied most parts of iran. sistan region is one of arid areas of iran where wind erosion is an important factor of land degradation and soil deterioration. for classification of desertification intensity, several methods h...

Many attempts have been made worldwide to develop methods to identify the areas most threatened by soil degradation. Some soils in afflicted areas may be irreversibly degraded and thus have very little resilience (the ability to restore themselves). For the purpose of assessing the current state of soil degradation in the Czech Republic (CZ) we have developed an overall indicator of land vulner...

For the precaution against physical soil degradation in managed soils, accurate planning data about anthropogenic impacts and for policy making applicable indicators to describe the driving force and state are required. To assess the potential erosion risk, accurate information is available, but to assess the actual erosion risk it is necessary to regard current land-use and cultivation data fo...
