Theory and practice of soil loss control in Eastern China [electronic resource] / J.C. Zhang, D.L. DeAngelis, J.Y. Zhuang ; with a foreword by Wen-Yue Hsiung.
In recent decades in eastern China there has been great progress towards ecological restoration through reforestation of bare lands and steeply sloping cultivated land suffering from serious erosion. This book introduces several soil loss control models suitable for land use strategies along with ma...
