Geological and Petrophysical Studies of Some Soil Erosion-Prone Zones within Okigwe and Umuahia Areas, Southeastern Nigeria

Abstract: Geological and petrophysical studies of some erosion prone soils around Okigwe and Umuahia area, southeastern Nigeria was carried out to determine the erodability and erosivity characteristics of the study area. Soil samples were collected with a soil auger at a depth range of 0-2m. Analyses carried out include the determination of petrophysical properties (porosity, permeability), and sieve analysis. Grain size analysis revealed sorting coefficients of 0.36–1.32, and graphical kurtosis of 0.51–1.49. The soils… Show more
