Wind erosion is important in areas with less than 150 mm of rainfall Measuring the extent and severity of wind erosion in many countries, including Iran, there is no station to measure wind erosion sediments and so the deposition estimation methods rely on empirical models so that in many cases there are measurement errors. With estimates wind and water erosion and deposition potential compared...

Extended abstract 1- Introduction Water scarcity is currently one of the worldchr('39')s challenges, especially in arid and semi-arid regions; This is because population growth and rising living standards require more food and water. Therefore, excessive use of natural resources has led to the destruction of potential agricultural lands and natural resources. The final process is floods, dust...

rivers and runoff have always been of interest to human beings. in order to make use of the proper water resources, human societies, industrial and agricultural centers, etc. have usually been established near rivers. as the time goes on, these societies developed, and therefore water resources were extracted more and more. consequently, conditions of water quality of the rivers experienced rap...

In semi-arid regions, soils are weakly aggregated and subjected to water erosion processes especially rill and interrill erosion. There is no information on the rate of these water erosion types in semi-arid soils located in the hillslopes. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the soils susceptibility to these erosion types in semi-arid region. A laboratory experiment was done in ei...

Introduction: Soil erosion is the most important factor in damaging and decreasing the productivity of agricultural soils. Moreover, as the transfer of sediments rich in nutrients through the soil leads to soil erosion and in turn to the decrease in the dams’ reservoirs’ storage capacity, bringing about adverse economic and eco-environmental consequences such as damage to land resources and dec...

The main parts of Iran have been countered in arid and hyper arid area that in result of especial environmental condition as low precipitation and vegetation density can be caused wind erosion, whereas wind erosion usually has a tiny destruction quantity than water erosion due to wide its activity. Because of not matching presented models by other countries with climate and edaphic condition of...
