Rainfall erosivity in interrill areas: Insights about the choice of an erosive factor

open access: yesCATENA, 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 ...

Erosividade das chuvas em Uruguaiana, RS, determinada pelo índice EI30, com base no período de 1963 a 1991 Rainfall erosivity in Uruguaiana, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil from 1963 to 1991 determined by the EI30 index

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2008
A erosividade representa o potencial que as chuvas têm de provocar erosão hídrica no solo. O índice EI30 é um método de determinação dessa erosividade das chuvas e é calculado, para cada chuva individual e erosiva, pelo produto da energia cinética total ...

Rainfall aggressiveness as a determining factor of erosion processes. Case Study: Calintir River Basin (Republic of Moldova) [PDF]

open access: yesPresent Environment and Sustainable Development
The climatic factor is of particular interest in the evaluation of erosion processes. The spatial and temporal distribution of rainfall is actually a key factor for erosion processes.

Available water modifications by topsoil treatments under mediterranean semiarid conditions: afforestation plan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
During dry periods in the Mediterranean area, the lack of water entering the soil matrix reduces organic contribu- tions to the soil. These processes lead to reduced soil fertility and soil vegetation recovery which creates a positive feedback process ...
