Because its economies depend heavily on exports to the United States, investors there are sensitive to any erosion in confidence in America.
The version sent to Rousseff mandated only that small rivers maintain 15 yards (metres) of forest along their banks, which are sensitive to rapid erosion that can then reduce water quality, promote flooding and affect the plants and animals that use the rivers to survive.
The value of ξ is sensitive to the erosion rate.
This is of particular interest to improve our knowledge and prediction of patterns of soil physical parameters, such as carbon storage or water content, particularly sensitive to surface erosion and landscape structuration.
In order to identify the areas in the Xilingele grassland which are sensitive to wind erosion, a computational fluid dynamics model (CFD-WEM) was used to simulate the wind fields over a region of 37 km2 which contains different topography and land use types.
After these ecosystems suffer serious desertification, their vegetation-free surfaces usually become sensitive to wind erosion and sand drifts (Li et al. 2004; Xu 2006).
Our results suggest that M. arion is less sensitive to genetic erosion via population bottlenecks than previously thought, and that managing clusters of high quality habitat may be key for long-term conservation.
In this regard, it is interesting to observe that recent genetic data obtained on Danish and Swedish populations suggest that M. arion is more dispersive and less sensitive to genetic erosion than was previously assumed [ 59, 60].
This is the result of the cumulative effects of steep slopes, presence of sensitive rocks to erosion, and a climate characterised by frequent extreme events.
