Soil Erosion Prone Zone - Survey, Identification and Control Approach

By Dr. Subash Thanappan

A variety of environmental problems like soil erosion, landslides depletion in the water bodies, diversity of flora and fauna, etc., have been inducted into the Eco-system. Especially, the nutrient rich soil top is taken away by the erosion which results in crucial environmental degradation, particularly, in sloppy terrain regions. The process of soil erosion greatly influences Eutrophication in water bodies like, rivers, ponds, lakes and etc., which leads to Unintegrated Water Resource Management. The accumulation of sediments, which is the consequence of soil erosion, has been considerably promoting the declination and deterioration of the storage capacity of as many as forms of water bodies. The predominant accelerating factor due for soil erosion known is the slope topography and the amount, intensity & frequency of rainfall and wind velocity, temperature and etc, are the further factors of influence. Hence, this text book gives a light for the Integrated Water Resource Management with the discovered mechanism in the chosen area which is primarily an Agri-fed zone.
