Development of erosion hazard index-based land suitability criteria for sustainable agriculture in the Nilgiris hills of India [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Land suitability analysis is vital for sustainable agriculture in fragile mountain ecosystems such as the Nilgiris. Earlier assessments, based on existing criteria, often rated large areas as “not suitable” and identified no “highly suitable” land for ...

Modifying the Bank Erosion Hazard Index (BEHI) protocol for rapid assessment of streambank erosion in northeastern Ohio. [PDF]

J Vis Exp, 2015
Understanding the source of pollution in a stream is vital to preserving, restoring, and maintaining the stream's function and habitat it provides. Sediments from highly eroding streambanks are a major source of pollution in a stream system and have the potential to jeopardize habitat, infrastructure, and stream function. Watershed management practices

Erosion hazard index [EHI] on different land use in sub-watershed Kaos, Jambi [PDF]

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021
Abstract Soil degradation that occurs in watershed Batanghari is generally caused by accelerated erosion due to land conversion. Sub-watershed Kaos is one of the sub-watershed from watershed Batanghari that has forest conversion to oil palm plantations is 7,846 Ha from the period 1995-2018. This research aims to assess the Erosion Hazard

Natural hazards in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil: rainfall erosivity as an early warning index [PDF]

, 2021
Rainfall erosivity is defined as the potential of rain to cause erosion. It has great potential for application in studies related to landslides and floods, in addition to water erosion. The objectives of this study were: i) to model the Rday using a seasonal model for the Mountainous Region of the State of Rio de Janeiro (MRRJ); ii) to adjust ...

Assessing the Instability of Dong Nai River in Bien Hoa District Using Bank Erosion Hazard Index (BEHI) and Remote Sensing and GIS [PDF]

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
Abstract In this study, a method for developing a quantitative prediction of river bank erosion in Bien Hoa district in Dong Nai River is presented. The river bank erosion hazard index (BEHI) was estimated to assess the stability of the river bank erosion in consultation with bank height, bank slope, rooting depth, rooting density and ...

Analysis of Erosion Hazard Index (IBE) and Its Distribution in Kamenti Tulap Watershed-East Coast Minahasa with Spatial Technology

International Journal on Advanced Science, Engineering and Information Technology
Erosion is a disaster on agricultural land. Due to extreme weather, flash floods, erosion, and landslides occurred in several areas of Minahasa Regency. The Kamenti Tulap watershed is one of the areas on the East Coast of Minahasa that experienced the flash flood disaster and was affected by material losses and damaged agricultural land.

Directions for Land Conservation Based on Determining the Erosion Hazard Index (EHI) Using the RUSLE Method in Sub-Watersheds Gunting, Jombang

Jurnal Agrinika: Jurnal Agroteknologi dan Agribisnis
Land damage generally occurs due to erosion by the flow of rainwater on the soil surface. Erosion is closely related to the intensity of rainfall in an area and the slope of the land (slope). Soil erosion is an environmental problem which, if left unchecked in the long term, can reduce soil fertility.

Bank erosion hazard index as an indicator of near-bank aquatic habitat and community structure in a southeastern Piedmont stream

Ecological Indicators, 2014
Abstract Streams in the southeastern Piedmont region display varying degrees of bank erosion, which in turn can influence multiple physical and biological processes. In efforts to assess and predict bank erosion, the multi-metric tool Bank Erosion Hazard Index (BEHI) is often calculated.
