Question

The wind erosion equation method is:

• A. \(E=f(I,K,C,L,V)\)
• B. \(E=f(T,V,C,R)\)
• C. \(E=f(M,C,V,R)\)
• D. \(E=f(I,K,T,L,V)\)

Hint:

Wind erosion equation is commonly represented as \(E=f(I,K,C,L,V)\).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept:
Wind erosion equation is used to estimate soil loss caused by wind erosion.

Step 1: Write the wind erosion equation.
The wind erosion equation is expressed as: \[ E=f(I,K,C,L,V) \]

Step 2: Meaning of terms. \[ E=\text{estimated soil loss by wind erosion} \] \[ I=\text{soil erodibility factor} \] \[ K=\text{soil ridge roughness factor} \] \[ C=\text{climatic factor} \] \[ L=\text{unsheltered distance} \] \[ V=\text{vegetative cover factor} \]

Step 3: Match with options.
The correct form given in the options is: \[ E=f(I,K,C,L,V) \] \[ \therefore \text{Correct Answer is (A)} \]
