Apr 13, 2024 · Soil erosion adversely impacts natural and human environments globally. Vegetation is often used as a sustainable approach to mitigate erosion. Although using vegetation to reduce erosion is a widely accepted concept, how different plant traits mitigate different mechanisms of erosion, and the generality of these mechanisms has not been well demonstrated. We developed ten hypotheses on how ...
May 1, 2024 · Non-photosynthetic vegetation (NPV) can significantly impact the magnitude of wind erosion. However, most wind erosion models did not take NPV into account, which led to large uncertainties in wind erosion simulation. To reduce these uncertainties, the effects of NPV on wind erosion should be considered in wind erosion simulations.
Oct 9, 2024 · This model is a combination of empirical and process modeling, with the assumption that the soil moved from its original location without considering sediment deposition within fields. In this study, soil erosion by wind is assessed over the globe by using a spatially distributed version of the RWEQ model (Yang et al., 2021). The distributed ...
Jul 29, 2015 · Aims Biological soil crusts (BSCs) are generally considered to reduce wind erosion, however, the extent of reductions is highly dependent on the vegetation type, soil moisture status, and their interactions in the field. The interrelationships between these factors or their combined effects are relatively unknown. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the contributions of the crust ...

Mar 8, 2008 · Because wind flows through porous vegetation, reverse flow in the lee of plants can be negligible and windward surface shear velocities in the wake of the plant can be greater than zero. Some studies [e.g., Bowker et al. , 2006 ] have shown that there can be reverse flow on the lee side of plants.
