Efficiency of Vegetative Filter Strips in Mitigating Soil Erosion and Surface Runoff
ABSTRACT Vegetative filter strips (VFS) are widely used in agriculture to reduce soil erosion and sediment transport during heavy rainfall events. This study assessed their effectiveness in controlling surface runoff and sediment transport under controlled field conditions.

ABSTRACT Urban grasslands (UGs) are among the most abundant type of green infrastructure in cities worldwide. They deliver a range of ecosystem services and perform numerous ecosystem functions. To ensure the multifunctionality of UGs, enhancing their biodiversity is crucial; however, owing to urbanisation effects and inappropriate management, UGs ...

ABSTRACT Semiarid regions like the Negev Desert face significant challenges due to low precipitation, nutrient‐poor soils, and grazing‐induced land degradation. Traditional grazing practices, particularly sheep corrals, have created nutrient‐rich hotspots that have influenced soil nutrient dynamics and vegetation patterns for decades.

ABSTRACT Wildfires are increasingly recognized as a critical driver of ecosystem degradation, with post‐fire hydrological and soil impacts posing significant threats to biodiversity, water quality, and long‐term land productivity. In fire‐prone regions, understanding how varying fire intensities exacerbate runoff and erosion is essential for guiding ...
