Résumé :
|
This volume is based on papers presented at the Honolulu meeting. Four themes are emphasized : delineating sediment sources and estimating the magnitude of soil erosion , quantifying the impacts of soil erosion and sedimentation on land productivity and the environment, establishing quantitive values for erosion-causing parameters, and creating global and regional networks for implementing soil and water conservation programs. As a follow-up to the first two international conferences on soil conservation, held in Ghent, Belgium, in 1980, this volume will have immense value for conservation professionals, technicians, and students throughout the world.
