The Terraced Walls Significantly Influence the Spatial Distribution of Soil Water in Terraced Areas on the Loess Plateau by BAI Chenyun, YU Xiaoling, MA Chenchen, HAN Xiaoyang, QIAO Jiangbo, ZHU Yuanjun

“…The depth of the soil layer and the distance from the terraced wall were the main factors influencing soil water content, while the correlation between soil particle composition as well as organic matter content and soil water content was low. [Conclusion] Lateral evaporation caused by the terraced walls on the Loess Plateau significantly affects the distribution of soil moisture, leading to a reduction in soil water on the side adjacent to the walls. …”
