2 WATER EROSION
2.1  mm2 - cm2: Dynamics of soil aggregation
2.2  m2: soil surface dynamics: physical degradation (surface sealing, crusting) and its impact on surface roughness, infiltration and runoff; biological processes; sub-surface dynamics (piping)
2.3 100m2 - 10 000 m2: : interrill and rill erosion; (ephemeral) gully erosion
3 WIND EROSION
4 MASS MOVEMENTS
5 TILLAGE EROSION
Spatial scale considered:
6 TEMPORAL SCALE OF EXPERIMENTS
6.5 years: Some sites running for five years now.
Temporal resolution Daily - annual.
7 DESCRIPTION OF EROSION FACTORS STUDIED
7.1 Climate: Usual parameters.
7.2 Topography:
7.3 Soils: Vary from site to site.
7.4 Vegetation: Various cover crops and tree hedgerows.
7.5 Management: Variations in nutrient input.
7.6 Others:
8 FIELD EXPERIMENTS Description of the field site and of the type of experiments and equipment involved for each of the erosion processes being studied:
8.1 Erosion process: Runoff and soil loss.
8.2 Location (town, state, country): China, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam.
8.3 Equipment involved: Meteorological station and runoff collection systems.
8.4 Remarks:
9 LABORATORY EXPERIMENTS Description of the laboratory and the type of experiments and equipment involved for each of the erosion processes studied:
All the cooperators have their own laboratory to analyze both physical and chemical properties of the soils collected from the experimental plots, including erosion samples. The analyses include N, P, K, OM, pH, CEC, Ca, Mg, aggregate stability, Db and mechanical analysis.
