Abstract: Excerpts from the report: Accelerated soil erosion by wind is the most dramatic form of soil erosion. It was the dust storms of the 1930’s that focused national attention on the problem of soil erosion. This bulletin details the scope of erosion by wind in the United States, describes the conditions that allow erosion, and shows how hundreds of thousands of landowners and land users are controlling erosion by wind.
