First use of the 137Cs techniques in Nigeria for estimating mediumterm soil redistribution rates on cultivated farmland
Soil erosion is a serious problem in the forest-savanna transition zone or derived savanna of West Africa and Nigeria and needs to be reduced to maintain soil quality and to ensure food security. In 2007, the use of the fallout radionuclide 137Cs as a tracer for estimating the magnitude of medium-te...
