Topographic thresholds for gully head formation in badlands
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 3558-3587, December 2022., 2022 Gully topographic threshold model was extended to badlands, on the basis of data collected in the Mediterranean environment in Italy and Spain, characterized by diversified climatic, lithological, geological and anthropogenic settings. Criteria for the attribution of curve number values has been more objectively defined in order to reduce arbitrariness
