Description

A comprehensive introduction to the topic of soil erosion has been provided in this profound book. Soil loss for erosion is a natural event in soil dynamics, affected by climate, soil intrinsic properties and morphology, which can both enhance as well as trigger the process. Anthropic activities, like improper agricultural practices, deforestation, overgrazing, forest fires and construction activities may trigger a great impact on erosion processes or, on the other hand, lead to soil erosion mitigation through a sustainable management of natural resources. The book consists of a number of topics focusing on a variety of aspects of the erosion phenomena.
