The effect of algal-mold crusts on the hydrologic processes of infiltration, runoff, and soil erosion under simulated conditions.

Studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of blue-green algae and molds growing on soil surfaces on infiltration, runoff, and suspended and settleable sediment production. Two contrasting soil types were used: a fine-textured clay of the Puna series and a coarse textured river alluvium of the A...
