Here are a few more erosion articles that should help you find additional solutions to wind erosion control, regulations, technical papers and other global information issues;

  1. A Dam Fine Idea
    Pat Mulroy, general manager of the Southern Nevada Water Authority, has a really good idea if you don’t like the thought of a 306-mile pipeline that will destroy wildlife habitat, cause wind erosion and dust storms and significantly drop the water table if the Snake Valley project in Utah and Nevada gets the go-ahead.

  2. Mixed farming systems at spring field day
    WIND erosion, poor performing patches in paddocks and all manner of crops and pastures were on display at the Bodallin Catchment Group Spring Field Day on Wednesday, September 14.

  3. Environmental Returns on Wind: Location, Location, Location
    Wind energy is a clean, renewable energy source, but it doesn't belong everywhere.
    A couple of weeks ago, bulldozers started clearing the way for 21, 450 foot-high wind turbines to be built at the top of the Green Mountains in Vermont.
    The 63 megawatt wind farm will be in the Northeast Kingdom on one of the largest tracts of private wild land in Vermont, along three miles of ridgeline.
    How do you get the massive wind turbines up there?

  4. New erosion plan in the works
    GALVESTON — Galveston residents and city officials are debating regulations for building along the coast as part of the city’s erosion response plan.
    The city has until the end of the year to submit its erosion response plan to the state for review. The plan, required by the state, is designed to lessen the impact that storms and erosion would have on property. Having an approved plan enables the city to apply for state funding.
    But the sticking point among stakeholders is the setback rule, which specifies where a structure can stand on the beach.
    “Where do we start measuring?” Wendy O’Donohoe, planning director for the city, asked. “Where is the most consistent point in a dynamic environment such as the beach? When you reference a point, at some point that line may be in another place.”
    Currently, the setback is 25 feet from the north toe of the dune. The sandy structures, however, gradually migrate with the coastal wind.

  5. Scientists Analyze Australian Wind Speeds
    Accurate estimates of long-term wind speed trends are essential for the planning and financing of the wind energy sector, and a variety of sectors, including building construction, coastal erosion, and evaporation rates. According to

  6. Short essay on Wind Erosion, Transportation and Deposition
    In general, the regions having precipitation less than 25 c per annum are termed as deserts and between 25 cm to 50 cm are term- as semideserts.
    Running water plays the same role in the semideserts as' does in humid regions. However, some typical semi-arid landforms produced in the semi-deserts. In arid or desert regions, streams a; subdued and wind gets increasing importance as a geologic agen Permanent streams are rare in deserts. Streams may originate elsewhe and pass through deserts like the Nile. However, intermittent an ephemeral streams do occur in deserts.
    Wind does its work everywhere on the earth's surface, even on th seas and glacial regions. However,

  7. How to Conduct a Wind Erosion Experiment
    Wind erosion occurs when wind blows soil or dirt particles from one place to another. It can change the shape of rock formations as soft rock erodes. Wind erosion also can alter the soil makeup of a field as topsoil blows away and gets replaced with less productive sand or soil from neighboring areas. Farmers work hard to create effective wind breaks in order to prevent wind erosion from degrading the soil quality, and therefore production

  8. Reconstruction in the Dust Bowl
    aLong-Range Program of reconstruction, designed to check the rapid spread of wind erosion and to mitigate the effects of future droughts, is at present being undertaken in the “Dust Bowl” of the Southwest by the Department of Agriculture. The new program involves the coordination of separate programs being carried on in the region by four different agencies in the department—the Soil Conservation Service, the Agricultural Adjustment Administration, the Extension Service, and the Resettlement Administration. Early in June, headquarters were set up at Amarillo, Texas, and Roy I. Kimmel, who had been in charge of the rehabilitation program of the Resettlement Administration in the Southwest, was designated by Secretary Wallace as field coordinator of the regional program

  9. There are many ways rocks can be textured.
    Wind erosion, water erosion, the escape of volcanic gases during their formation (in the case of igneous rocks)… all these forces can create the pitted textures found on many rocks on Earth… and perhaps even on Mars. And according to a report published by a group of planetary geologists led by James Head of Rhode Island’s Brown University, another method may also be at play on Mars: melting snow.

  10. Environmental Quality Incentives Program
    The Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) is a volunteer conservation program that helps to assist landowners improve and address resource concerns. Some of these resources concerns may include: soil and wind erosion, gully erosion, nutrient management, wildlife habitat, etc. EQIP helps to provide
