ABSTRACT:
Erosive wind energy (EWE) distributions were determined for the 7 western states and Alaska. Wind erosion equation climatic factors (C) were determined for the 10 Great Plains States, the 7 western states, end Alaska. Both EWE and C should be useful in improving design and evaluation of wind erosion control systems and data quality from future national erosion inventories.
