Mountainous regions cover about 27 per cent of the world’s land surface and are home to some 22 per cent of the global population (UNEP 2002). A much greater number of people depend on mountain environments for a wide range of services, including clean water, energy, timber, biodiversity, recreation, and protection from environmental hazards, such as landslides and floods. At the same time, mountain areas are extremely vulnerable ecosystems and under continuous threat of environmental degrad… 相似文献

Introduction Until the late 1980s, the mountainous regions of northern Thailand and northern Vietnam were largely cut off from the rapid economic develop- ment in the urban centers such as Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Hanoi, and from the dynamics of the ‘gree… 相似文献

Wind erosion characteristics of Sahelian surface types 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The assessment of wind erosion magnitudes for a given area requires knowledge of wind erosion susceptibilities of the dominant local surface types. Relative wind erosion potentials of surfaces can hardly be compared under field conditions, as each erosion event is unique in terms of duration, intensity and extent. The objective of this study was to determine and compare relative wind erosion potentials of the most representative surface types over a transect comprising most parts of southwestern Niger. For this purpose, mobile wind tunnel experiments were run on 26 dominant surface types. The effects of surface disturbance were additionally determined for 13 of these surfaces. The results, namely measurements of wind fields and mass fluxes, can be classified according to specific surface characteristics. Three basic surface groups with similar emission behaviour and aerodynamic characteristics were identified: (1) sand surfaces, (2) rough stone surfaces and (3) flat crusted surfaces. Sand surfaces feature a turbulent zone close to the surface due to the development of a saltation layer. Their surface roughness is medium to high, as a consequence of the loss of kinetic energy of the wind field to saltating particles. Sand surfaces show the highest mass fluxes due to the abundance of loose particles, but also fairly high PM10 fluxes, as potential dust particles are not contained in stable crusts or aggregates. Rough stone surfaces, due to their fragmented and irregular surface, feature the highest surface roughness and the most intense turbulence. They are among the weakest emitters but, due to their relatively high share of potential dust particles, PM10 emissions are still average. Flat crusted surfaces, in contrast, show low turbulence and the lowest surface roughness. This group of surfaces shows rather heterogeneous mass fluxes, which range from moderate to almost zero, although the share of PM10 particles is always relatively high. Topsoil disturbance always results in higher total and PM10 emissions on sand surfaces and also on flat crusted surfaces. Stone surfaces regularly exhibit a decrease in emission after disturbance, which can possibly be attributed to a reorganization which protects finer particles from entrainment. The results are comparable with field studies of natural erosion events and similar wind tunnel field campaigns. The broad range of tested surfaces and the standardized methodology are a precondition for the future regionalization of the experimental point data. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

This paper reports a study on soil development in loamy marine sediments on both sides of the Oslofjord (Vestfold, Østfold). This region has been subject to steady glacio-isostatic uplift during the whole Holocene. Hence, land surface age continuously increases from the coast inland. Several sea level curves, based on radiocarbon datings, enable estimation of land surface age for all locations. Clay illuviation starts in less than 1650 years. E horizons become lighter with age, but their lower boundary stays around 40 cm for more than 10 000 years. Albeluvic tongues develop between 4600 and 6200 years. Initially, they form along intersections of cracks. As preferential flow and leaching along the cracks continues, the tongues increase in length and width, progressively consuming the prisms between the cracks in the upper Bt horizon. The Fed/Fet ratios (weighted means of the upper meter) show a clear linear increase with soil age and may be used for “pedo-dating”, i.e. for estimating the ages of non-dated land surfaces covered with similar sediments. In contrast, the logarithmic decrease of base saturation and pH, with rapid changes in the first time but only very slight changes between 2000 and 10 000 years, makes these parameters unsuitable for “pedo-dating”. 相似文献

Fe and Al oxides distribution in some ultisols and inceptisols of southeastern Nigeria in relation to soil total phosphorus 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
Ten highly weathered soils in southeastern Nigeria were sampled from their typical A and B horizons for analyses. The objectives
were to determine the different forms of Fe and Al oxides in the soils and relating their occurrence to phosphate availability
and retention in the soils. The soils are deep and often physically degraded but are well drained and coarse in the particle
size distribution. They are mostly dominated by kaolinite in their mineralogy with very high values of SiO2. The soils are acidic with low soil organic carbon (SOC) contents. The elements in the exchange complex are also low thus
reflecting in the low CEC of the soil. Available phosphorus (P) in the soils are generally low while total P ranged from 157
to 982 mg kg−1 with an overall average of 422 mg kg−1. Total Fe in the soil is highest and their order represented as follows: Fet > Fed > Feox ≥ Fep. The pyrophosphate extractable Fe was always higher in the top soil than in the subsoil and was attributed to the fact that
these forms of Fe are associated with organic matter which is more abundant in topsoil than in subsoil. Like in Fe forms,
the order of Al occurrence could generally be presented as; Alt > Ald > Alox > Alp. More Fe and Al oxides in the soils are strongly crystalline while a small quantity is poorly crystalline Fe forms. The amorphous
forms of both Fe and Al are very low in the soils when compared with the crystalline forms. The oxides that show very strong
affinity to total P are Fed–Feox, Fed, Ald, Fet, Feox and Alox/Ald. To overcome this problem of P retention in the soil, we recommend constant liming of these soils to neutralize them, application
of organic matter and of high dosage of phosphate fertilizer to the soils. 相似文献

A methodology for retrieval and mapping of spatial soil and terrain data based on the SOTER approach has been developed for semi-arid Niger. Remote sensing technics and detailed ground transect investigations are used, and the collected data are integrated into a SOTER database and a Geographic Information System. Transect selection, their realization and the related problems with transect-based calculations are discussed. The method permits estimations of soil type coverages, present land use and soil degradation at different scale levels. The significant dynamics of soil redistribution are pointed out and attributed to present and past erosion events. 相似文献
