Raindrop size distribution and terminal velocity for rainfall erosivity studies. A review

Journal of Hydrology, 2019
The knowledge of the rainfall drop size distribution (DSD) at the land surface is essential for understanding precipitation mechanisms affecting soil erosion processes. Rainfall erosivity is defined as the potential of rain to cause erosion and it can be

Rainfall erosivity in Europe

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2015
Rainfall is one the main drivers of soil erosion. The erosive force of rainfall is expressed as rainfall erosivity. Rainfall erosivity considers the rainfall amount and intensity, and is most commonly expressed as the R-factor in the USLE model and its revised version, RUSLE.

Improvement of satellite‐based rainfall product CHIRPS in estimating rainfall erosivity on the Loess Plateau

Land Degradation & Development, 2023
Satellite‐based rainfall products have great potential for estimating rainfall erosivity, as they can provide continuous spatiotemporal distribution of precipitation estimates over large areas, especially for monitoring in areas with complex terrain and ...

Projected mid-century rainfall erosivity under climate change over the southeastern United States.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Recent observations and climate change projections indicate that changes in rainfall energy, intensity, duration, and frequency, which determine the erosive power of rainfall, will amplify erosion rates around the world.

Spatiotemporal prediction of rainfall erosivity by machine learning in southeastern Brazil

Geocarto International, 2022
The spatiotemporal dynamic of rainfall erosivity is essential for environmental studies and guidance to control erosion. The purpose of this study is to assess rainfall erosivity (monthly and annual), testing machine learning algorithms aided by a ...

Rainfall erosivity: An historical review

Catena, 2017
Abstract Rainfall erosivity is the capability of rainfall to cause soil loss from hillslopes by water. Modern definitions of rainfall erosivity began with the development of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE), where rainfall characteristics were statistically related to soil loss from thousands of plot-years of natural rainfall and runoff data ...

Linking Gully Erosion and Rainfall Erosivity

International Symposium on Erosion and Landscape Evolution (ISELE), 18-21 September 2011, Anchorage, Alaska, 2011
Gully erosion is an ancient and important worldwide problem capable of dramatically increasing sediment yields when active. Rainfall erosivity is a key variable in this phenomenon. However, there are few studies that explore the relationship between rainfall erosivity and gully erosion.
