Soil erosion problems and solutions in Mosul city

Soil Erosion and Solutions in Mosul City, (SES).The Mosul Governorate geographically located on latitude 3919 north and latitude 9 - 43 east and rising above sea level by 222.5 meters and the rainfall rate between 400 - 600 mm. The study area begins with the water dividing line between the valleys heading towards the Tigris River and there are some valleys. As for the north, it was identified with the beginning of the valleys. Semi ends in the discharge of the Tigris River while the city of Rabiah is located in the western part of the study area. Through the study and loading of the water and wind erosion operations in Mosel are Through the study and loading of the water and wind erosion operations in the Nineveh region. Water erosion is one of the most dominant geomorphological processes in the world. The area has the most impact on soil erosion and the dredging of wind erosion with evidence of magnitude. Erosion, whether it is by water, wind or tillage, involves three distinct actions – soil detachment, movement and deposition. Topsoil, which is high in organic matter, fertility and soil life, is relocated elsewhere "on-site" where it builds up over time or is carried "off-site" where it fills in drainage channels. Soil erosion reduces cropland productivity and contributes to the pollution of adjacent watercourses, wetlands and lakes. Soil erosion can be a slow process that continues relatively unnoticed or can occur at an alarming rate, causing serious loss of topsoil. Soil compaction, low organic matter, loss of soil structure, poor internal drainage, salinisation and soil acidity problems are other serious soil degradation conditions that can accelerate the soil erosion process. Soil erosion remains a key challenge for Mosul agriculture. However, the reason is not management and not doing crop production technology in the Mousl that have increased soil erosion, Awareness usually occurs only when property is damaged and productive areas of soil are lost. The increase in extreme weather events predicted with climate change will magnify the existing water and wind erosion situations and create new areas of concern.
