Erosive Rainfall Thresholds for Five Typical Soils in Water Erosion Region of China
[Objective] The practical thresholds separating erosive from non-erosive rainfall events were determined to effectively reduce the workload of soil erosion prediction, and to provide references for regional soil erosion prevention.

Distribution Characteristics of Rainfall Erosivity in Jiangsu Coastal Areas
The issue of regional soil and water loss caused by human activity is particularly severe in coastal regions. Since coastal reclamation areas are a valuable land reserve resource, it is of practical significance to understand the distribution ...

Rainfall erosivity drives damaging hydrological events with significant environmental and socio-economic impacts. This study presents the world’s hitherto longest time-series of annual rainfall erosivity (725–2019 CE), one from the Tiber River Basin (TRB)

Rainfall erosivity in Central Chile
Summary One of the most widely used indicators of potential water erosion risk is the rainfall-runoff erosivity factor (R) of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE). R is traditionally determined by calculating a long-term average of the annual sum of the product of a storm’s kinetic energy (E) and its maximum 30-min intensity (I30), known ...

Seasonal changes in the soil hydrological and erosive response depending on aspect, vegetation type and soil water repellency in different Mediterranean microenvironments [PDF]
Mediterranean areas are characterized by a strong spatial variability that makes the soil hydrological response highly complex. Moreover, Mediterranean climate has marked seasons that provoke dramatic changes on soil properties determining the runoff ...

The increase of rainfall erosivity and initial soil erosion processes due to rainfall acidification [PDF]
AbstractThe drastic growth of population in highly industrialized urban areas, as well as fossil fuel use, is increasing levels of airborne pollutants and enhancing acid rain. In rapidly developing countries such as Iran, the occurrence of acid rain has also increased. Acid rain is a driving factor of erosion due to the destructive effects on biota and
