Contributions of shaft friction to total penetrometer resistance were measured using a new design of penetrometer . Field and laboratory experiments were performed on soil with a range of textures under dif ferent moisture conditions . The relative contribution of shaft friction was greatest in loos
The erodibility ( K ) of 55 surface soils, sampled from different regions of Nigeria, was assessed using a rainfall simulator, and compared with estimates (K,) obtained using the Wischmeier nomogram method (Wischmeier et a f . , 1971). Soil erodibility values ranged from 0.000 to 0.535. The actual m
