Динамика современных процессов сноса и аккумуляции на Курском опытном полигоне

Аннотация

The paper summarizes long-term measurements of slope and gully erosion and sedimentation within elementary catchments in the Kursk region. Soil erosion and sedimentation dynamics on slopes and bottoms of elementary rills is traced on daily, seasonal, and yearly basis. The processes appeared to relate to spatial differentiation of the catchment surface, its morphology in the first place. Quantitative data are given on the erosion and sedimentation dynamics in the gully and on its elements. The gully growth and its elements development is concluded to be of cyclic character.
