Dynamic rainfall erosivity estimates derived from IMERG data [PDF]
Soil degradation is a critical threat to agriculture and food security around the world. Understanding the processes that drive soil erosion is necessary to support sustainable management practices and to reduce eutrophication of water systems from ...

Spatiotemporal variation and tendency analysis on rainfall erosivity in the Loess Plateau of China
Rainfall erosivity is an important factor to be considered when predicting soil erosion. Precipitation data for 1971–2010 from 39 stations located in the Loess Plateau of China were collected to calculate the spatiotemporal variability of rainfall ...

New gridded dataset of rainfall erosivity (1950–2020) on the Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
The risk of water erosion on the Tibetan Plateau (TP), a typical fragile ecological area, is increasing with climate change. A rainfall erosivity map is useful for understanding the spatiotemporal pattern of rainfall erosivity and identifying hot spots ...

Experimental Setup for Splash Erosion Monitoring—Study of Silty Loam Splash Characteristics [PDF]
An experimental laboratory setup was developed and evaluated in order to investigate detachment of soil particles by raindrop splash impact. The soil under investigation was a silty loam Cambisol, which is typical for agricultural fields in Central ...

Rainfall erosivity in Central Chile
Summary One of the most widely used indicators of potential water erosion risk is the rainfall-runoff erosivity factor (R) of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE). R is traditionally determined by calculating a long-term average of the annual sum of the product of a storm’s kinetic energy (E) and its maximum 30-min intensity (I30), known ...

Rainfall erosivity causes considerable environmental damage by driving soil loss. However, the long-term evolution of erosive forcing (over centennial to millennial time-scales) remains essentially unknown. Using a rainfall erosivity model (REMARB), this

Rainfall erosivity estimation based on rainfall data collected over a range of temporal resolutions [PDF]
Rainfall erosivity is the power of rainfall to cause soil erosion by water. The rainfall erosivity index for a rainfall event (energy-intensity values – EI30) is calculated from the total kinetic energy and maximum 30 min intensity of individual events ...
