erodibility

Combining trends in climate and land-use change and the erodibility index allows a calculation of the water erosion risk index.

Global Environment Outlook (GEO-4)~ Chapter 9 2008

Low precipitation, low available water capacity, and erodibility limit agricultural use.

Ecoregions of Colorado (EPA) 2008

The terrace effects have successfully stabilized these banks, an amazing feat considering their steepness and erodibility

2 Case Studies 1993

Siddoway et al. (1965) quantified the specific properties of vegetative covers influencing soil erodibility and developed regression equations relating soil loss by wind to selected amounts, kinds, and orientation of vegetative covers; wind velocity; and soil cloddiness.

1. Indigenous soil and water conservation in Africa. 1992

Tillage has a direct bearing on the factors I, soil erodibility; K, soil surface roughness and V, equivalent quantity of vegetative cover.

1. Indigenous soil and water conservation in Africa. 1992

The susceptibility of soil to erosion depends on the soil’s nature and is called erodibility.

2.1. Factors in rainfall erosion 1982

Soils may be classified according to their erodibility while specifying the type of erosion to which they are subject and the incidence and intensity of the damage caused.

1.1. Aims 1982

Extensions will only be offered to landowners whose contracts have the highest environmental benefits index or erodibility index for soil erosion.
