Projected Rainfall Erosivity and Soil Erosion in Central Asia
2021The GCMs (BCCCSM1-1, IPSLCM5BLR, MIROC5, and MPIESMLR) were statistically downscaled using the delta method under Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) 2.6 and 8.5 for two periods: “Near” and “Far” future (2030s and 2070s). These GCMs data were used to estimate rainfall erosivity and its projected changes over Central Asia.

Rainfall Erosivity in Northeastern Austria
Transactions of the ASABE, 2013Abstract. Rainfall erosivity is the main driver for soil detachment and sediment transport, and represents the climatic factor most influencing the risk of soil erosion at a given site. Our objectives were to explore 15 min rainfall breakpoint data from 51 rain gauges in the northeastern part of Austria to (1) calculate rainfall erosivity values for ...

International Journal of Climatology, 2019
AbstractThe Australian Alpine region is highly vulnerable to extreme climate events such as heavy rainfall and snow falls, these events subsequently impact rainfall erosivity and hillslope erosion in the region. In this study, the relationship between extreme rainfall indices (ERIs) and rainfall erosivity was examined across the Alpine region in New ...

Rainfall erosivity map for Brazil
CATENA, 2004Abstract Rainfall erosivity is the potential ability for rainfall to cause soil loss. Erosivity can be quantified by means of the R factor calculation of the universal soil loss equation (USLE). The purpose of this study was to investigate the spatial distribution of annual rainfall erosivity in Brazil.

Rainfall Erosivity over Rhodesia
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, 1976The paper discusses the basis of the determination of the erosive potential of rainfall, termed 'erosivity'. Using bare soil as a standard, a measure linking kinetic energy and a maximum sustained intensity (EI3o) is found to be the most generally applicable erosivity parameter over large areas of Rhodesia.

Rainfall erosivity: An historical review
CATENA, 2017Abstract Rainfall erosivity is the capability of rainfall to cause soil loss from hillslopes by water. Modern definitions of rainfall erosivity began with the development of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE), where rainfall characteristics were statistically related to soil loss from thousands of plot-years of natural rainfall and runoff data ...

Effects of rainfall patterns on runoff and rainfall-induced erosion
International Journal of Sediment Research, 2019Abstract Rainfall-induced erosion involves the detachment of soil particles by raindrop impact and their transport by the combined action of the shallow surface runoff and raindrop impact. Although temporal variation in rainfall intensity (pattern) during natural rainstorms is a common phenomenon, the available information is inadequate to understand

Rainfall changes and rainfall erosivity increase in the Algarve (Portugal)
CATENA, 1995Abstract There is evidence that, between hydrological years 1931/2 and 1990/ 1, rainfall changed in the Algarve. There was an annual rainfall increase (+9%) and a 7% increase in rainfall during the rainy period (October to February). Both trends were statistically confirmed by parametric and nonparametric procedures.

Estimation of Rainfall Erosion Index
Journal of the Irrigation and Drainage Division, 1974The rainfall erosion index in the Universal Soil-Loss Equation has been intensively studied using an analytic approach. Simplified procedures for its computation have been developed and presented. The methodology ties together the eastern and western portions of the United States and is based primarily upon the rainfall distribution curves as published
