Global rainfall erosivity assessment based on high-temporal resolution rainfall records [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
The exposure of the Earth’s surface to the energetic input of rainfall is one of the key factors controlling water erosion. While water erosion is identified as the most serious cause of soil degradation globally, global patterns of rainfall erosivity ...

Improving Rainfall Erosivity Estimates Using Merged TRMM and Gauge Data [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2017
Soil erosion is a global issue that threatens food security and causes environmental degradation. Management of water erosion requires accurate estimates of the spatial and temporal variations in the erosive power of rainfall (erosivity).

Mapping monthly rainfall erosivity in Europe.

Sci Total Environ, 2017
Rainfall erosivity as a dynamic factor of soil loss by water erosion is modelled intra-annually for the first time at European scale. The development of Rainfall Erosivity Database at European Scale (REDES) and its 2015 update with the extension to monthly component allowed to develop monthly and seasonal R-factor maps and assess rainfall erosivity ...

Rainfall Erosivity in Soil Erosion Processes [PDF]

Water, 2020
Regional studies on the erosive power of rainfall patterns are still limited and the actual impacts that may follow on erosional and sedimentation processes are poorly understood. Given the several interrelated challenges of environmental management, it is also not always unclear what is relevant for the development of adaptive and integrated ...
