Quantitative Kinetic Energy Estimated from Disdrometer Signal [PDF]

, 2020
The kinetic energy of the rain drops was predicted in a relation between the rain rate and rain quantity, derived directly from the rain drop size distribution (DSD), which had been measured by a disdrometer located in the eastern state of Alagoas ...

Soil vulnerability in Uruguay: potential effects of an increase in erosive rainfall on soil loss [PDF]

Climate Research, 1997
Climate change is likely to modify rainfall patterns and their interaction with the soil. This paper addresses soil vulnerability in terms of soil loss resulting from increases in the amount of rainfall. Four agricultural soils from Uruguay were studied: 2 'Vertisol Kuptico' soils (Typic Pelluderts), 1 'Brunosol Subeutrico Tipico' and 1 'Brunosol ...

Forest Hydrology, Soil Conservation and Green Barriers in Canary Islands [PDF]

, 2012
In volcanic islands, the rainfall regime and its torrential nature, together with the steep slopes and the soil types present are considered to be some of the main factors affecting forest hydrology and soil conservation.

Spatial variability of the rainfall erosive potential in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil [PDF]

Engenharia Agrícola, 2012
Information about rainfall erosivity is important during soil and water conservation planning. Thus, the spatial variability of rainfall erosivity of the state Mato Grosso do Sul was analyzed using ordinary kriging interpolation. For this, three pluviograph stations were used to obtain the regression equations between the erosivity index and the ...

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

, 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.

Assessing the use of rainfall synthetic series to estimate rainfall erosivity in Brazil

CATENA, 2018
Although it has been used in research or technical work, applying synthetic rainfall data series to estimate rainfall erosivity is still a tool that requires careful evaluation and validation. In this study we evaluate the potential use of synthetic data

Downscaling and modelling climatic change projections with rainfall erosivity impact and wind velocity potential in the variability of tropical climate: a track towards space-earth sustainability nexus

EQA, 2023
The increase in atmospheric properties degradation including environmental polarization and ecosystem degradation has been linked with levels of climatic hazards posed by climatic change. The geographical location of the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria in the North Central geo-political zone of Nigeria within the Savannah vegetation zone of the ...

Monthly Rainfall Erosivity: Conversion Factors for Different Time Resolutions and Regional Assessments [PDF]

, 2015
As a follow up and an advancement of the recently published Rainfall Erosivity Database at European Scale (REDES) and the respective mean annual R-factor map, the monthly aspect of rainfall erosivity has been added to REDES. Rainfall erosivity is crucial
