Observed rainfall erosivity risk (ORE) index is defined as the erosivity risk in the event of extreme rainfall events. ORE measures the kinetic energy of raindrops generated during a period of maximum precipitation intensity with the formula ORE=ED·TEI ...

Slurry erosion behaviors of basalt filled low density polyethylene composites
Abstract In this study, slurry erosion behaviors of basalt filled low density polyethylene composites were investigated. Pure low density polyethylene and four different compositions of the composites 10 wt.%, 30 wt.%, 50 wt.% and 70 wt.% basalt were used in the study.

Estimating Current and Future Rainfall Erosivity in Greece Using Regional Climate Models and Spatial Quantile Regression Forests [PDF]
A future variation of precipitation characteristics, due to climate change, will affect the ability of rainfall to precipitate soil loss. In this paper, the monthly and annual values of rainfall erosivity (R) in Greece are calculated, for the historical ...

Climate Change Implications on Rainfall Erosivity and Intensity Duration Frequency Curves over the Southeast United States [PDF]
Climate change impacts on precipitation characteristics will alter the hydrologic characteristics, such as peak flows, time to peak, and soil erosion potential. However, many of the currently available climate change datasets are provided at temporal and

Soil erosion in an avalanche release site (Valle d'Aosta: Italy): towards a winter factor for RUSLE in the Alps [PDF]
Soil erosion in Alpine areas is mainly related to extreme topographic and weather conditions. Although different methods of assessing soil erosion exist, the knowledge of erosive forces of the snow cover needs more investigation in order to allow soil ...
