Particle dynamics are described in terms of suspension, saltation, surface creep, abrasion, sorting and threshold conditions. Soil particle flow rates are divided between the all-erodible-particle case and the more common but more complex case ox mixtures of erodible particles and non-erodible elements. Specific principles of wind erosion control are identified. A wind erosion equation, which estimates potential erosion from a particular field and the conditions necessary to reduce potential erosion to tolerable amounts are discussed. asoil awind aErosão aSolo aVento aControl aControle aErosion tAgriculture Ecosystems Environmentgv.22/23, p.91-101, 1988.
