Fig. 13.2.
Carbon content of wind-eroded material during 4 months of measurements; each TO marks a
tillage operation with a chisel of about 10 cm depth; after that, the highest concentration of SOC was
always measured.
Fig. 13.3.
Scanning electron microcopy capture of dust sampled at a height of
3
m; mineral particles are
uniform in size of about
50
μm, organic particles with the same aerodynamic characteristics are much
larger, resulting in a relative increase of SOC content.
