Assessment of soil erosion in olive orchards (Olea europaea L.) under cover crops management systems in the tropical region of Brazil [PDF]
, 2020 In the tropics, water erosion is one of the most important factors leading to the degradation and deterioration of agricultural land. Olive orchards have a low canopy coverage, especially during the first years after planting, due to the low density of ...

POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON RAINFALL EROSIVITY IN THE YELLOW RIVER BASIN OF CHINA [PDF]
Transactions of the ASAE, 2005 Severe soil erosion in the Yellow River basin is a significant obstruction to the sustainable management of soil and water resources. Any changes in soil erosion will have great effects on long-term planning of soil and water conservation in such a severely eroded basin.

Analysis of mathematical models to estimate erosivity
Diversitas Journal, 2023 The main cause of soil degradation in humid tropical and subtropical environments is water erosion, characterized by being the most important in Brazil. The main factors that determine soil losses by water erosion are erosivity, erodibility, topography,

Hydroclimatic control on suspended sediment dynamics of a regulated Alpine catchment: a conceptual approach [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2018 We analyse the control of hydroclimatic factors on suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in Alpine catchments by differentiating among the potential contributions of erosion and suspended sediment transport driven by erosive rainfall, defined as ...

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.

Zoning of erosion potential of water accumulated in snow cover based on climatological data analysis
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2009 Melting of snow in winter and early spring often causes soil erosion. The results of erosion studies show that the runoff generated in the cold period can cause more intensive erosion than in the warm half year.
