Gully Erosion Susceptibility Prediction Using High-Resolution Data: Evaluation, Comparison, and Improvement of Multiple Machine Learning Models

Remote Sensing
Gully erosion is one of the significant environmental issues facing the black soil regions in Northeast China, and its formation is closely related to various environmental factors.

Reconstructing long-term gully dynamics in Mediterranean agricultural areas [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Gully erosion is an important erosive process in Mediterranean basins. However, the long-term dynamics of gully networks and the variations in sediment production in gullies are not well known. Available studies are often conducted only over a few years,

Application of an Ultrasonic Sensor to Monitor Soil Erosion and Deposition [PDF]

, 2020
While erosion and deposition are naturally occurring processes, these processes can be accelerated by human influences. The acceleration of erosion causes damage to human assets and costs billions of dollars to mitigate.

Developing a simple soil erosion model including spatial variability in headwater catchments

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Hillslopes and stream channels are tightly linked in headwater catchments, where soil erosion on slopes is transported to channels depending on topography, soil properties, and ground cover conditions. Because these environments are highly spatially variable, geographic information system (GIS)‐based modeling approaches are effective for ...

Morphometric and hydraulic geometry assessment of a gully in SW Spain [PDF]

, 2016
Gully erosion represents one of the most significant types of land degradation in the Mediterranean areas, giving place to important on- and off-site effects. In this paper, a second-order gully located in SW Spain is analyzed.

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1091-1119, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Evaluation of vegetation and stream health within sites supported by the Hamilton City Council Plants for Gullies Programme [PDF]

, 2013
Between August 2012 and March 2013, the Environmental Research Institute, University of Waikato, conducted a survey of randomly selected Hamilton gully sites which had received plants from the Hamilton City Council’s Plants for Gullies Programme.

Economics of Gully Erosion Stabilization [PDF]

, 2018
Rainfall intensity is increasing in the Northeastern U.S. Stabilizing gullies is one strategy for adapting to this changing climate. This case study evaluates the costs and benefits of restoring gullies at Last Resort Farm.

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

The Quality of Clarity: Lessons from the Sixty‐Year Struggle to Maintain the Purity of Lake Taupō

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
Sixty years of effort to protect the exceptionally clear water of Lake Taupō, the largest lake in Aotearoa New Zealand, show how environmental memory can help manage a cultural and natural resource. I describe how water clarity and quality in this lake have been protected, through managing soil erosion and phosphorus flows during the 1960s–1980s, and ...
