Climate Change Can Intensify Soil Erosion and Sediment Deposition
ESSIC/CISESS Assistant Research Scientist Junyu Qi and Visiting Research Scientist Xuesong Zhang are co-authors on a recent paper titled “Pronounced Increases in Future Soil Erosion and Sediment Deposition as Influenced by Freeze–Thaw Cycles in the Upper Mississippi River Basin”.
