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.

The future stability of upland blanket peat following historical erosion and recent re-vegetation [PDF]
The importance of fluvial dissection in upland blanket peat erosion is well-established but knowledge of the significance of peatland gully system development is limited. This thesis investigates the stability of upland blanket peat in relation to recent

Porous check dams and the MERGE gully erosion model
Gullies are hot spots of erosion. Gullies are the majority source of sediment that ultimately reaches the Great Barrier Reef despite occupying less than 1% of the catchment.

India needs a better gully erosion map [PDF]
Gully erosion affects India widely. Badlands, the most extreme form of land degradation caused by gullying, are also observed across large parts of Central and Western India.

Gully erosion, a cause of soil degradation and reduced crop yields is widespread in the diffuse river and hillock regions of Northeast China. The surface conditions in gully erosion areas are complex, and manual extraction methods are inefficient ...

Abstract Introduction Natural regeneration is an efficient, minimal‐intervention approach essential for facilitating resilient, self‐sustaining ecosystems during woodland restoration. However, recruitment can be slow, uncertain, or highly restricted, particularly in mountain woodland systems where tree planting and large herbivore management are ...

Research Progress on Ephemeral Gully Erosion Process and Its Prediction Model
Ephemeral gully is one of the important soil erosion patterns at hilly-gully region of the Loess Plateau.Its initiation and development is closely related to runoff scouring and human farming.The authors outlined ephemeral gully process,hydraulic ...

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.

The Laws of Hillslope Channel Erosion Occurrence and Development on Loess Plateau
Complex channel system,and channel erosion play a very important role in soil erosion on loess plateau.We divided the channel into three series,and subdivided hillslope erosion ditch series into rill,shallow-gully and gully.In this paper,we give shallow ...

Morphology is an important characteristic of the hydraulic and gravitational processes driving gully erosion. In this study, field scouring experiments were conducted on five experimental plots using terrestrial laser scanning to study gully erosion ...
