    Eliminating water erosion within the system of land sanation measures
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2007) Korelewski, Krzysztof
    The paper defines the place of anti-erosional meliorations within the system land sanation (improvement) measures. It presents basic measures aimed at protecting soil against water erosion, taking into consideration the degree of their implementation urgency, and outlines the question of eliminating water erosion in spatial planning. Among anti-erosion measure, we can mainly enumerate activities of an agrotechnical and bioengineering character. From the technological perspective, these are primarily: anti-erosional crop rotation, anti-erosional field patterns, afforestation, biological and mechanical reinforcement of ravines and escarpments. Not only do they aim at restoring the imbalanced ecological systems (mainly agroecosystems) but they also intend to aptly shape physiographic elements (relief, soil, water regimes) as well as methods of land use, according to spatial planning regulations. Anti-erosional measures help in implementing the policies of sustainable development through land use rationalisation, taking into consideration the requirements of sozology.
