Quantitative estimate of sheet wash at the Central Kopet-Dag slopes (with reference to Ashkabad proving ground)

Abstract

Sheet wash was studied at the Central Kopet-Dag slopes during 1966-1977; a complex oscillatory character of sheet wash has been observed, nevertheless the sediments budget appeared to be negative at all the slopes. Statistical treatment of data confirmed a generally positive correlation between slope wash rate, topographic conditions and precipitations.
