Abstract

Soil erosion is a main hazard in most area of the country specially in arid and semi-arid regions and it is very important because of SEDIMENTATION, pollution, increased flooding and its negative effects on soil productivity. One of the features of arid and semi-arid areas is the presence of low cover of vascular plants. These empty spaces are usually good niches for biological soil crusts or cryptogams like MOSSes. These crusts contribute to a variety of ecological functions and have different effects on soil features and vascular plants. The present study was carried out in the rangelands of Torogh dam basin of Khorasan- Razavi province in order to find the effects of such kind of plants (mosses) on WATER EROSION. For this purpose, artificial runoff streams in plots with two intensity (low and high) for 30 minutes. In order to study the effects of different amount of MOSSes on SEDIMENTATION and specific erosion, four different density of MOSSes in the same experimental situation were studied: high (60-75% of plot), medium (35-50% of plot), low (10-20% of plot) and control (0%). The results of analysis of variance and tukey method by the use of Minitab software showed a significant difference in 95% level between the four considered density of MOSSes and the two intensity of water. As MOSSes density decrease, SEDIMENTATION and specific erosion increased consequently. But there were no significant differences in INFILTRATION between the different treatments.
