Soil transport is the study of the movement of soil particles and nutrients across the Earth's surface through processes such as erosion, deposition, and sedimentation. This research area examines how soil particles are transported by wind, water, ice, and gravity, and how these processes can impact soil quality, land productivity, and environmental sustainability. Soil transport studies may also investigate the effects of human activities such as agriculture, deforestation, and urbanization on soil erosion and sedimentation rates. Researchers in this field use a combination of field observations, laboratory experiments, and modeling techniques to better understand and manage soil transport processes.
