COMPLEX CHARACTERISTICS OF SOIL BLOWING PROCESS

Abstract

Theory of magnitudes dimension and similarity application to parameters representing soil blowing process allowed to receive two complex characteristics of wind erosion process in dimensionless form - erosion wind potential and comparative index of soil surface wind erosion instability. It is possible to quantitatively estimate and compare wind erosion stability of any soil surface and air stream influence degree on it, as well as simplify wind erosion intensity calculation at any wind velocity, with use of derived complex characteristics.
