What is the practice of plowing fields along curves of a slope called?
Low-till or no-till
What are the Factors that Affect the Amount of soil that being Carried away?
Factors that affect the amount of soil being carried away include rainfall intensity, slope steepness, vegetation cover, soil type, and human activities like deforestation and construction. These factors can increase erosion rates and lead to soil loss.
What erosion creates small channels of running water on the side of a slope?
Rill erosion creates small channels of running water on the side of a slope. It occurs when rainfall or snowmelt flows down a slope, picking up soil particles and creating small, narrow channels. Rill erosion can lead to further soil erosion if left unchecked.
Which factor in soil formation deals with the slope of land?
The factor in soil formation that deals with the slope of land is erosion. Steep slopes are more prone to erosion, which can affect soil development by removing topsoil and altering the composition of the soil. Erosion on steep slopes can cause loss of soil fertility and affect plant growth.
A sharp drop-off beyond the continental shelf is called what?
A sharp drop-off beyond the continental shelf is called a continental slope. The continental slope marks the transition between the continental shelf and the deep ocean floor.
When farmers plow their fields along the curves of a slope what is it called?
Contour plowing. This technique helps prevent soil erosion by following the natural shape of the land, allowing water to flow evenly across the slope rather than washing away topsoil.
What is a sentence for topsoil?
If we don't plant some trees on this slope, the topsoil will wash away with the first rains.
Which change would cause the topsoil in West Virginia to increase in thickness?
an increase in biological activity. :)
How does ploughing across a slope of a hill help retain the soil in farm fields?
Plowing across the slope minimizes erosion by inhibiting water's ability to run down the slope. Plowing in the direction of the slope creates channels that water runs down, carrying the valuable topsoil with it.
What is the practice of plowing fields along curves of a slope called?
Low-till or no-till
What does the m mean in slope?
This is true for many reson the answer is that it used to be called "module of slope" but now its just called slope.
What is positive slope?
If the slope (line)is in upward direction, it is called positive slope
The slant of a line on a graph is called?
the slope.
What are the Factors that Affect the Amount of soil that being Carried away?
Factors that affect the amount of soil being carried away include rainfall intensity, slope steepness, vegetation cover, soil type, and human activities like deforestation and construction. These factors can increase erosion rates and lead to soil loss.
What is the slope of the water table called?
Gradient is the steepness of a slope.
Which area would be more likely to lose its topsoil a gently sloping area or a steep hill?
I asked the same question! The steeper one will of course loose it's topsoil. Because the soil at the top of the hill can't stay up at steep hill, eventually gravity will pull it down to a reasonably flat ground. A sloping area topsoil will not fall because it can easily grip on the ground without gravity pulling at it that much. I hopes this helps you!
How long might it take an inch of topsoil to erode on bare a slope during a a hard rain?
bla bla bla bla bla ...idont know
