Abstract
The erodible particle size distribution, diameter range and separate c ontent of three sails from semi-arid regions or China were determined at different wind velocities through wind tunnel simulation and dry si eving. It was demonstrated that soil erodibility by wind depends not o nly on the intrinsic soil properties, but also on the extrinsic erosio n effect of the erosive winds. If was supposed that there existed gene ral consistency In the mechanics of wind erosion on different soils.
