Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego researchers have uncovered how rain and waves act on different parts of coastal cliffs. Following three years of cliff surveys in and near the ...

Dr. Gusarov (Paleoclimatology, Paleoecology and Paleomagnetism Lab) has been working on erosion processes for two decades as a part of various teams. In this research, he tackled the Middle Volga ...

How mangrove roots interact with water flow is believed to be a key element in mitigating coastal erosion. Researchers are the first to quantify the optimal mangrove root hydrodynamic with a ...

This video explores the four key river erosion processes of hydraulic action, abrasion, attrition and solution. Each erosion process wears away the river’s bed and banks. Soft rocks erode more quickly ...

With steep walls and deep valleys, the Grand Canyon in the western United States or the massive gorges that saw through the margins of the Tibetan Plateau are some of the most awesome and spectacular ...

Over 45 billion tons of soil are lost to erosion every year. Farmers and agricultural authorities in several countries have succeeded in slowing down erosion with the help of nuclear techniques. Here ...

I like the way it wears away soil and soft rock, leaving odd outcroppings of harder rock. I like the way it changes the course of streams and rivers and even alters the shape of coastlines. And I like ...

A Perforation Erosion (PEER) Consortium is investigating perforation erosion in unconventional fracture limited-entry treatments. The consortium is led by NSI Technologies LLC (NSI) and brings ...

Researchers have always known that waves were an important part of the cliff erosion process, but they haven't been able to separate the influence of waves and rain before. After decades of debate ...
