Gully cut- and- fill cycles as related to agromanagement : a historical curve number simulation in the Tigray Highlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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 ...

Evaluation of Gully Erosion Susceptibility Using a Maximum Entropy Model in the Upper Mkhomazi River Basin in South Africa

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2021
Soil erosion is one of the most challenging environmental issues in the world, causing unsustainable soil loss every year. In South Africa, several episodes of gully erosion have been documented and clearly linked to the presence of Quaternary colluvial ...

Seasonal surface drainage of sloping farmland : a review of its hydrogeomorphic impacts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The combination of runoff-generating areas (saturated soils) and overland flow concentration in features such as drainage ditches makes sloping farmland vulnerable to soil erosion.

Gully Morphological Characteristics and Topographic Threshold Determined by UAV in a Small Watershed on the Loess Plateau

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Gully erosion is an important sediment source in small watershed, and causes severe land degradation, particularly in semi-arid regions. Accurately measuring gully morphological characteristics, and determining its topographic threshold, are vital for ...

Environmental Laws in Nigeria and Occurrence of Some Geohazards: A Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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 ...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for monitoring soil erosion in Morocco [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This article presents an environmental remote sensing application using a UAV that is specifically aimed at reducing the data gap between field scale and satellite scale in soil erosion monitoring in Morocco. A fixed-wing aircraft type Sirius I (MAVinci,

Gully erosion risk in Hungary [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Information and Communication Technologies, 2012
In Hungary more than one-third of agricultural land is affected by water erosion; 16% by wind erosion. The role of gully erosion has been recognized only lately. The main factor of gully erosion risk is soil parent material, i.e. unconsolidated sediments, mainly loess covering two thirds of the country area.
