Abstract
When soil is transferred from one location to another by human activity, and the natural soil crust and upper layer of the soil is removed or covered by newly disturbed loose soil, new micro topography of the soil surface structure is created (White and Picket, 1985; Fletcher and Martin, 1948). This new soil surface does not have the biological soil crust structure and is completely different.
