A SINGLE EVENTWIND EROSION MODEL
A Single Event Wind Erosion Model (SEEM) has been developed and tested with field erosion data. Estimates of 
mass transport and critical field lengths are possible with SEEM when given simple inputs for soil, crop, field, and weather 
conditions. With the transport and critical field length coefficients in a sigmoid equation, average soil loss can be computed. 
Estimates of soil loss from 2.6 ha circular fields with SEEM ranged from 0.03 to 6.64 kg/m2, measured values ranged from 
0.015 to 8.03 kg/m2. Calculated soil losses were correlated with measured losses for seven sites and eleven storms (r2 = 
0.88).
