Sediment source tracing in a Brazilian subtropical catchment using diffuse reflectance: Effect of spectral ranges, pre-processing techniques, and multivariate model [PDF]
Agriculture intensification in Southern Brazil’s subtropical regions combined with the frequent occurrence of erosive rainfall has rendered the area a global water erosion hotspot.

Estimation of soil redistribution rates due to snow cover related processes in a mountainous area (Valle d'Aosta, NW Italy) [PDF]
Mountain areas are widely affected by soil erosion, which is generally linked to runoff processes occurring in the growing season and snowmelt period.

Aerodynamic effects in the erosion process [PDF]
Abstract Experimental investigations of velocity effects on the erosion of a ductile material by aerodynamically entrained solid particles indicate that erosion varies with the fourth power of velocity in normal or 90° impacts. For smaller angles of attack the exponent is less than 4 but greater than 2.

Quantification of soil erosion in the Alps : measurement and modeling [PDF]
Alpine regions have a high potential for soil erosion associated to extreme climatic and topographic conditions. Because of aggressive development in the recent past, environmental damage enhanced by acid deposition, global warming and development ...
