Distributed soil loss estimation system including ephemeral gully development and tillage erosion [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015
A new modelling system is being developed to provide spatially-distributed runoff and soil erosion predictions for conservation planning that integrates the 2D grid-based variant of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation, version 2 model (RUSLER), the ...

Machine Learning Techniques for Gully Erosion Susceptibility Mapping: A Review

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
Gully erosion susceptibility mapping (GESM) through predicting the spatial distribution of areas prone to gully erosion is required to plan gully erosion control strategies relevant to soil conservation.

Gully cut- and- fill cycles as related to agromanagement : a historical curve number simulation in the Tigray Highlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Gully cut-and-fill dynamics are often thought to be driven by climate and/or deforestation related to population pressure. However, in this case-study of nine representative catchments in the Northern Ethiopian Highlands, we find that neither climate ...

Effects of drainage ditches and stone bunds on topographical thresholds for gully head development in North Ethiopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Gully erosion is an extreme process of land degradation operating in different regions of the world. A common way to quantify the susceptibility of land to gully incision is the use of topographical thresholds for different land use types.

A multidisciplinary study of an exceptional prehistoric waste dump in the mountainous inland of Calabria (Italy) : implications for reconstructions of prehistoric land use and vegetation in Southern Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The mountainous inland of northern Calabria (Southern Italy) is known for its sparse prehistoric human occupation. Nevertheless, a thorough multidisciplinary approach of field walking, geophysical survey and invasive research led to the discovery of a ...

Evaluating sediment transport capacity relationships for use in ephemeral gully erosion models [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015
On cropland, ephemeral gully erosion in the USA may contribute up to 40% of the sediment delivered to the edge of the field. Well-tested, physically- and process-based tools for field and watershed scale prediction of gully erosion are lacking due to the

The Suitability of Remote Sensing Images at Different Resolutions for Mapping of Gullies in the Black Soil Region, Northeast China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Remote sensing images with different spatial resolutions have different performance capabilities for gully extraction, so it is very important to study the suitability of different spatial resolutions for this purpose.

The potential of permanent gullies in Europe as geomorphosites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Geotourism is a useful way to educate societies in the field of geomorphology and natural hazards. Geosites, including geomorphosites, represent the basis for the development of this type of tourism.

An approach to identifying and evaluating the potential formation of ephemeral gullies in the conditions of the Czech Republic

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2020
Soil erosion, including ephemeral gully erosion, is a serious degradation process in the Czech Republic. It currently threatens more than half of the agricultural acreage through negative changes in the whole complex of soil properties.

Tolerable versus actual soil erosion rates in Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Erosion is a major threat to soil resources in Europe, and may impair their ability to deliver a range of ecosystem goods and services. This is reflected by the European Commission's Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection, which recommends an indicator ...
