Healing/Healed Sheet Erosion on a Blackland Experiment Station Cotton Field

Photograph of healing/healed sheet erosion on this cotton field located at the Blackland Experiment Station. The back of the photograph proclaims, "Sheet Erosion. After one rain, cross slope runoff on this down hill [sic], straight rowed field cut shallow gullies (4" deep) to the depth of bedded rows. Since then, cotton in the field has been cultivated once or twice and visual evidence of erosion has almost been obliterated. Damage to the field remains unaltered, however."
