erózia pôdy


Definition from Wikipédia:
Erózia pôdy je spôsobená hlavne gravitáciou, ale aj ďalšími faktormi, ako je napríklad intenzita zrážok, štruktúra materskej horniny či pôdy, sklon svahu, hustota rastlinného pokryvu alebo spôsob využívania pôdy.

Example sentence(s):
  • Pôda sa vytvára zvetrávaním hornín pod vplyvom fyzikálnych a chemických činiteľov ( teplota , vietor, dážď , oxidácia , sťahovanie a praskanie ) a živých organizmov. Na druhej strane môže byť zloženie pôdy narušené tými istými fyzikálnymi a chemickými činiteľmi , ktoré podmienili jej vznik. Tento fenomén označujeme termínom ,, erózia.“ - Referáty
