Experimental Study on Influencing Factors of Ephemeral Gully Erosion on Losses Slope
Ephemeral gully erosion is an important erosion type in hilly area of Loess Plateau.The influence of rainfall intensity,area of upper catchment,gradient and tillage to ephemeral gully was studied preliminarily by simulating experiments.Main conclusions ...

Abstract Introduction Successful restoration of terrestrial drylands depends on stable, fertile soils that retain water. These functions are provided by biological soil crusts (biocrust), suggesting their reestablishment is a critical step in dryland restoration.

Downcurrent variation in submarine channel‐fill architecture from the shelf to upper slope
ABSTRACT The transition between the shelf and the upper slope is often considered an area of sediment bypass, where steeper gradients increase flow velocities and maintain particles in suspension. In addition to transferring sediments into deeper basins, upper‐slope areas can also host channelised submarine deposits.

Towards an Assessment of the Ephemeral Gully Erosion Potential in Greece Using Google Earth
Gully erosion may cause considerable soil losses and produce large volumes of sediment. The aim of this study was to perform a preliminary assessment on the presence of ephemeral gullies in Greece by sampling representative cultivated fields in 100 sites

Evaluating ephemeral gully erosion impact on Zea mays L. yield and economics using AnnAGNPS
Ephemeral gully erosion causes serious water quality and economic problems in the Midwest United States. A critical barrier to soil conservation practice adoption is often the implementation cost, although it is recognized that erosion reduces farm ...

Selected Physical and Geotechnical Properties of Loess in Wairarapa Valley, New Zealand
Loess up to 10 m thick covers marine terraces, old river aggradation terraces, and gentle hill country slopes in Wairarapa, New Zealand. In the drier eastern and southern parts of Wairarapa, the loess is subject to dry summer and autumn and wet winter and spring in most years.
