Kinnel (2004) described the transportation of soil particles under raindrop erosion in following four processes: 1. Raindrop Detachment with Transport by Raindrop Splash (RD-ST) Raindrop Detachment with Transport by Raindrop Induced Flow Transport (RD-RIFT) 3. Raindrop Detachment with Transport by Flow (RD-FT) 4. Flow Detachment with Transport by Raindrop (FD-FT). These processes are described as […]

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Introduction to Water Erosion Risk 2. Assessment of Water Erosion Risk 3. Factors 4. Methods. Introduction to Water Erosion Risk: The assessment of relative risk of erosion to bare soil involves consideration of slope class erodibility. Previous vegetative covers are not taken into consideration for water erosion […]
Characteristics of Raindrop | Erosion | Soil Management
Article shared by :
The raindrop size, shape, mass, velocity, size distribution and its direction of fall are the main characteristics of raindrop. These characteristics are described as below: Characteristic # 1. Rain Drop Size: The rain drop size has been evaluated by Lowe (1967), who caught several raindrops on a flat sheet of slate which was ruled into […]
