Spatial Differentiation of Soil Erosion on Typical Loess Hill Slope in Loess Hilly and Gully Region
The spatial distribution of 137Cs and the spatial differentiation of soil erosion on typical loess hill slope in the loess hilly and gully region was analyzed by using 137Cs tracer technique to determine the content of 137Cs in different slope aspect positions. The results showed that there were obvious differences of erosion between different slope aspects. The order of the average erosion rate was as follows: north slope > southwest slope > northeast slope > west slope > northwest slope > south slope > southeast slope > east slope and all the slopes were characterized by strong erosion. Moreover
the erosion rates in different slope positions of the same slope aspect showed significant differences
the erosion amount in lower part of the slope was the maximum and less in the upper slope. Overall
the erosion rate showed a trend of fluctuations along the slope
and the erosion intensity was mainly characterized by medium
strong and extremely strong and most of them was strong.
