The Wind Erosion Prediction System (WEPS) is a daily simulation model which outputs average soil loss and deposition values for selected areas and periods of time. It is applicable to just one field, or can be applied to a few adjacent fields.
Wind is another natural factor which causes erosion. Wind is known to pick up soil and shift it to another space whilst it does so the actual soil decomposes and loses its soil particles. Wind and water together can cause erosion to occur severely. Wind itself can not cause as much harm as they do together. Ice and snowfall are another 2 natural causes of erosion and they too can be devastating to crop yields, landscaped gardens, land investments and commercial parks.
