Soil conservation and hydrological role of shelterbelts as a factor of biological drainage and general improvement of reclamation conditions of irrigated lands, prevention of salinization and waterlogging are shown. Instructions are given to design and locate shelterbelts in irrigated areas, depending on irrigation methods and technology.

Despite almost a century of research and extension efforts, soil erosion by water, wind and tillage continues to be the greatest threat to soil health and soil ecosystem services in many regions of the world. Our understanding of the physical processes of erosion and the controls on those processes has been firmly established. Nevertheless, some elements remain controversial. It is often these controversial questions that hamper efforts to implement sound erosion control measures in many areas of the world. This book, released in the framework of the Global Symposium on Soil Erosion (15-17 May 2019) reviews the state-of-the-art information related to all topics related to soil erosion.
