Performance of the single‐event wind erosion evaluation program (SWEEP) model in assessing the impact of crop rotation, green manure, fertilizer, and tillage on wind erosion

Agricultural land management strategies have been applied to minimize wind erosion in the inland Pacific Northwest (iPNW) due to their profound influence on various soil properties and crop residue characteristics. However, simulating soil loss in response to these treatment strategies remains a cha...

Description
Summary:Agricultural land management strategies have been applied to minimize wind erosion in the inland Pacific Northwest (iPNW) due to their profound influence on various soil properties and crop residue characteristics. However, simulating soil loss in response to these treatment strategies remains a challenge. The objective of this study was to test the performance of the single‐event wind erosion evaluation program (SWEEP) in simulating soil loss from agricultural land under contrasting tillage, crop rotation, fertilizer, and green manure treatments in the iPNW. These management strategies appeared to impact residue characteristics but had little or no impact on soil properties except tillage treatments in the short term (
