| Description | One element of the CIVCAL project
Web-based resources containing images, tables, texts and associated data of the Soil Erosion.
The word "erosion" is derived from the Latin "erosio", meaning to "to gnaw away". In general terms soil erosion implies the physical removal of topsoil by various agents, including rain, water flowing over and through the soil profile, wind, ice or gravitational pull. This part of the CIVCAL project introduces the processes and control of soil erosion, including aspects of soil erosion in Hong Kong. Civil Engineering, construction, geotechnical, building site 1. Teachers can draw examples and illustrative material for lectures and demonstration. 2. Students can use the web-site for research and project work. All required plug-in downloadable from the site Designed for undergradute Civil and Building Engineering students. To enhance the learning and teaching of Civil and Building Engineering through ready access to virtual experiences on a variety of construction sites. 1. To enable virtual site visits. 2. To provide multi-media enhancement of teaching and learning material. 3. To provide supplementary material for courses in Civil and Building Engineering. 4. To provide resource material for students conducting independent studies. |
