PVA and PAM were sprayed on the surface of the soil samples in the erosion trays (30 × 30 × 14 cm; at a slope of 9%) and then simulated rainfall (60 mm/h) was applied to these trays for 1 hour. According to the results of the research, increases in PVA and PAM doses reduced runoff erosion by runoff, and by splash significantly (P<0.05 and 0.01).tr10.5053/ekoloji.2010.776info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessErosionRain simulatorRunoffSoil conditionersSplashArticle773541Q4
