Abstract
AbstractDirect measurement of slope retreat on three unvegetated slope profiles on unmodified, pre‐1939, strip‐mine dumps revealed average ground losses ranging from 29 to 33 mm/year. Measured ground losses are twice those estimated from the Universal Soil Loss Equation. Slope length seems less significant than frost action in influencing erosion on these slopes.
