In this article we will discuss about how to measure splash erosion. Introduction to Splash Erosion: The splash erosion is the initial phase of sediment production from the hill slopes. It has very fundamental importance in the soil erosion studies. Regarding evaluation of splash erosion, very few studies have been made so far under field condition. However, in contrast to [...]
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 under: 1. Raindrop Detachment with [...]
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 risk analysis. Also, it is [...]
