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...

pedological criterion affecting desertification in alluvial fans was investigated, for which the map of units was prepared by crossing maps of land use, geology, slope classes and grid layer created by the extension of et geo-wizards in arcgis 10.3. three indices of salinity, erodibility, and permeability of soil were considered and classified. weights of criteria and consistency ratio were cal...

Forests in Europe are currently not endangered by soil erosion. However, this can change with climate or intensified forest management practices. Using a newly established network of plots beech forests across Europe, the aims study were to (i) distinguish properties and erodibility indices relation bedrock, (ii) determine geochemical organic carbon (C org ) influencing erodibility, (iii) asses...

One of the main factors of water erosion is the natural characteristics of the soil called "erodibility" or"detachability". The present study aims to analyze the variations of soil erodibility factor in different plains and thefactors related to it. Erodibility is one the key factors in some models of erosion and sediment such as Universal SoilLoss Equation (USLE), Revised USLE (RUSLE), and Mod...
