Rainfall erosivity in Central Chile

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology, 2011
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 ...

Climate Patterns in the World’s Longest History of Storm-Erosivity: The Arno River Basin, Italy, 1000–2019 CE

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
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

Characteristics and tendencies of the Gumanti Valley rainfall pattern towards erosivity as a mitigation effort in facing the threat of climate hazards [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Rainfall is one of the most important climatic parameters in the agricultural sector. Each raindrop contains kinetic energy that can destroy soil particles and carry them away to lower places. Nutrients located in the top layer of soil are susceptible to

Rainfall erosivity estimation based on rainfall data collected over a range of temporal resolutions [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2015
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 ...

The increase of rainfall erosivity and initial soil erosion processes due to rainfall acidification [PDF]

open access: yesHydrological Processes, 2018
AbstractThe drastic growth of population in highly industrialized urban areas, as well as fossil fuel use, is increasing levels of airborne pollutants and enhancing acid rain. In rapidly developing countries such as Iran, the occurrence of acid rain has also increased. Acid rain is a driving factor of erosion due to the destructive effects on biota and

Estimation of the annual rainfall erosivity index based on hourly rainfall data in a tropical region

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2021
The annual mean rainfall erosivity (R) indicates the potential soil loss caused by the precipitation and runoff and is used to predict the soil loss from agricultural hillslopes. R is calculated from rainfall stations with continuously recording rainfall

Spatiotemporal Variations and Causes of Wind/Rainfall Erosion Climatic Erosivity in Qinghai Province, China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Wind and rainfall climatic erosivities are important parameters with which to assess the possible effects of climatic conditions on erosion. In this study, wind erosion climatic erosivity (C-factor) and rainfall erosivity (Rday-factor) were calculated ...
