Erosion Monitoring Techniques

Erosion monitoring techniques involve using tools and methods to track how land is worn away over time. These include satellite imagery, drone photography, and aerial surveys that provide detailed visuals of changes in terrain. Ground-based sensors and erosion pins are inserted into soil to measure movement and loss of material directly. Additionally, techniques like laser scanning and GPS mapping offer precise spatial data on erosion patterns. These methods help scientists and engineers assess erosion rates, understand causes, and develop strategies to prevent land degradation and protect ecosystems.
