Since physical and chemical erosion yield comparable carbon fluxes, studying both together is essential to avoid biases in erosion-driven carbon flux estimates.

For example, acid rain dissolves limestone to form karst, a type of terrain filled ... and overgrazing can expedite erosion and strip the land of soils needed for food to grow.

It takes an average of 20 years for less than a millimeter of soil to naturally replenish itself, according to a 2006 study from Cornell University, so this type of erosion can undo decades of ...

He says soil erosion has been a long-time concern. The soil in their county was 34 inches deep in 1960. Fast forward to 2014, it was about 15 inches deep. “All soil types on bare ground are ...

The distance that eroded sediments travel is a function of the type of erosion, the degree of disturbance experienced by the soils, and the connectivity to water channels. Most material mobilized ...

Study: Redistributing soil can restore nutrients, improve water retention, and significantly boost crop yields on eroded ...
