The principal objective of this investigation was to quantify erosion rates for five agricultural fields in three separate study areas in Saskatchewan. The radionuclide tracer caesium-137 (137Cs) was used to quantify net erosion and net deposition within the landscape over a 30-year period. Uneroded

## Measurements are reported of the distribution of "'Cs within a 6.6 ha drainage basin on cultivated black earth soils located near Merriwa in New South Wales (N.S.W.). The results were used to estimate net loss as well as accumulation of soil. The losses of "'Cs from the catchment slopes were as
## Abstract Sediment redistribution within nearβlevel agricultural fields in the Gray Wooded soil zone of Saskatchewan was studied using the artificial environmental tracer caesiumβ137 (^137^Cs). the objective of this study was to estimate erosion rates caused by wind erosion, and land clearing tec
