Soil losses from typic cambisols and red latosol as related to three erosive rainfall patterns
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2013 Rainfall erosivity is one of the main factors related to water erosion in the tropics. This work focused on relating soil loss from a typic dystrophic Tb Haplic Cambisol (CXbd) and a typic dystrophic Red Latosol (LVdf) to different patterns of natural ...

Science of The Total Environment, 2015 Rainfall is one the main drivers of soil erosion. The erosive force of rainfall is expressed as rainfall erosivity. Rainfall erosivity considers the rainfall amount and intensity, and is most commonly expressed as the R-factor in the USLE model and its revised version, RUSLE.

Response of erosive rainfall thresholds on Loess slopes to land cover and rainfall intensity [PDF]
Scientific ReportsRainfall events of sufficient intensity can trigger soil erosion on loess hillslopes. Determining the actual threshold of erosive rainfall events is essential for reducing the workload of soil erosion forecasting and for providing scientific guidance for

Rainfall erosivity in interrill areas: Insights about the choice of an erosive factor
Catena, 2019 Defining a suitable erosive factor for interrill erosion has been a long-going discussion that was not resolved by experimental results.: Insights about the choice of an erosive factor. In this paper, by using computational fluid simulations of individual raindrop impacts, the relevance of four erosive factors was assessed for a range of soil ...

Rainfall Erosivity in Soil Erosion Processes [PDF]
Water, 2020 Regional studies on the erosive power of rainfall patterns are still limited and the actual impacts that may follow on erosional and sedimentation processes are poorly understood. Given the several interrelated challenges of environmental management, it is also not always unclear what is relevant for the development of adaptive and integrated ...
