Description
Summary:The book deals with erosion processes in the Slovenian part of Istrian peninsula. In the introductory chapters the fluvial-denudation relief in Slovenia, erosion processes, and their influential factors, as well as the extent of erosion processes in Slovenia and Slovene Istria are presented. The largest section of the book is devoted to the presentation of measurements of erosion processes in the Dragonja river basin. Measurements included soil erosion measurements (interrill erosion on three different land uses, rill erosion and wind erosion), measurements of rockwall retreat and movements of debris through an erosion gully, as well as chemical denudation in the river basin.
Knjiga obravnava erozijske procese v slovenski Istri in je prva monografija s tovrstno tematiko pri nas. V uvodnih poglavjih so predstavljeni rečno-denudacijski relief v Sloveniji, erozijsko-denudacijski procesi in njihovi vplivni dejavniki ter obseg erozijskih procesov v Sloveniji, Sredozemlju in Sivi Istri. Največji del knjige je namenjen predstavitvi konkretnih meritev erozijsko-denudacijskih procesov v porečju Dragonje. Meritve, ki so potekale od februarja 2005 do maja 2006, so obsegale meritve erozije prsti, sproščanja flišnih kamnin iz strmih golih pobočij, premikanja sproščenega flišnega gradiva po erozijskem jarku in kemične denudacije v porečju. Sproščanje flišnih kamnin je v povprečju okrog 80 kg/m2 na leto, kar pomeni, da se pobočja umikajo s hitrostjo od 35 do 50 mm letno. Meritve denudacije so razkrile, da se površje na 1000 let zniža za 66 mm.
