A portable field wind tunnel was used to assess the sediment flux rates of loam and sand textured soils in the Mallee region of southeastern Australia. Three levels of crust disturbance (nil, moderate and severe) simulating stock trampling were investigated. The results demonstrated the importance o
Friction threshold velocities (FTVs) were determined for biological soil crusts in dierent stages of recovery. Particles on the surface of crusts that had been relatively undisturbed for at least 20 years were found to have signiยฎcantly higher FTVs than those that had been disturbed 5, 10 or 1 years
