SDSU's Erosion Control Lab

The Bend Weekly News contains an article on the erosion control testing lab at San Diego State University (SDSU). Rain machines and tilted tables, coir logs and turf reinforcement mats (TRMs); the list of clients, both public and private, is long. The writer seems to have enjoyed his introduction to the subject, and he’s done a decent job capturing the basics of what different erosion control materials aim to do.
