A New Method to Predict Gully Head Erosion in the Loess Plateau of China Based on SBAS-InSAR
Gully head erosion causes serious land degradation in semiarid regions. The existing studies on gully head erosion are mainly based on measuring the gully volume in small-scale catchments, which is a labor-intensive and time-consuming approach. Therefore,

Factors controlling the morphology and volume (V)–length (L) relations of permanent gullies in the Northern Ethiopian Highlands [PDF]
Small-scale aerial photographs and high-resolution satellite images, available for Ethiopia since the second half of the twentieth century as for most countries, allow only the length of gullies to be determined.

Environmental Laws in Nigeria and Occurrence of Some Geohazards: A Review [PDF]
Nigeria as a country is blessed with an abundance of both human and natural resources. Exploitation of natural resources in Nigeria over the years with little or no regard for the environment has increased susceptibility of parts of the country to ...

Gully cut- and- fill cycles as related to agromanagement : a historical curve number simulation in the Tigray Highlands [PDF]
Gully cut-and-fill dynamics are often thought to be driven by climate and/or deforestation related to population pressure. However, in this case-study of nine representative catchments in the Northern Ethiopian Highlands, we find that neither climate ...

System and climate related pythium problems in mobile chrysanthemum growing systems [PDF]
One Dutch greenhouse company started to grow chrysanthemums in a mobile system. The system’s basic unit is a sub-irrigated V-shaped gully of 8.0 m long and 5 cm wide, filled with a peat-coir mix.
