Compares temperatures on five different surfaces - natural grass, bare ground, gravel parking lot, concrete sidewalk and blacktop parking lot. Discussion of purpose, intent, instruments and results. - (DWG)
) active, where bare sand averages more than 80 percent of the dune surface and sand patches are close together; (2) composite, with about 50 percent bare sand area and sand patches that are close together and of minimal complexity; (3) aggregated, where
bare sand is about 23 percent of the surface and the sand patches are moderately adjacent, of relatively low complexity, and relatively far apart; and (4) inactive, where the bare sand averages about 6 percent of the surface and the patches are complex
Influence of bare rocks on surrounding soil moisture in the karst rocky desertification regions under drought conditions
The aim of the study was to determine the influence of those exposed bare rocks on soil moisture in the surrounding area in a typical Karst Rocky Desertification (KRD) region — the Forest Station of Sandoqing, in Fu'yuan County, Yun'nan Province
sides. Soil surface moisture increased with the above-ground height of the rocks. During the drought period bare rocks created some shade, resulting in higher soil moisture on the north side of the rocks compared to the other three directions
The AA. compared karren formation of various slopes (3 bare slopes and 2 with a plant patch) in a glacier valley close to Tragl peak (in Totes Gebirge, Austria). It could be established that bare slopes have a larger average specific width, channel
shape and channel density. The dynamics of karren features are different on the bare slopes and slopes fed from a plant patch. Karren features tend to widen on bare slopes, while they tend to deepen on slopes with a plant patch. The specific width
The A. outlines the historical development of the Katowice region. The scope of the paper is to evidence how the regional development involved the transition from a border region through a bare-joint region towards an integrated region.
: creation of bare soil by grazing animals; maintenance and expansion of area of bare soil by grazing animals; threshold vegetation cover and erosion; threshold grazing intensities and erosion; rates of erosion of grazed land; grazing, increased runoff
Soil movement has been measured daily for almost a year on a 12o slope. Results show a pattern of alternating movements, with amplitudes substantially larger on bare earth than on grass. Time series exhibit short-term dependence with lags of one
or two days and there are several instances where expansions and contractions can be related to individual precipitation events. A non linear and lagged relationship can be identified between daily precipitation and daily soil movement on bare earth

Common and uncommon selectivity in the process of fluid transportation: field observations and laboratory experiments on bare surfaces in Aridic soils and geomorphic processes.
Sand columns, sand cones, sand mushrooms and other striking sand forms are frequently observed in the Dutch and German beach and dune sands. The objective of this study is to describe, explain and illustrate the origin of sand columns in bare dune
In bare dolines grass associations seemingly homogeneous in their habitat and rich in number of species act as indicators of the specific ecological conditions of the various slopes. For the differences of species on the SW and NE slopes water
