Regionalization of monthly rainfall erosivity patterns in Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2016
One major controlling factor of water erosion is rainfall erosivity, which is quantified as the product of total storm energy and a maximum 30 min intensity (I30).

Rainfall erosivity estimation over the Tibetan plateau based on high spatial-temporal resolution rainfall records

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2022
The Tibetan Plateau (TP) in China has been experiencing severe water erosion because of climate warming. The rapid development of weather station network provides an opportunity to improve our understanding of rainfall erosivity in the TP. In this study,

Model of rainfall erosion index for predicting the potential erosion rate by using a rainfall simulator

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract The intent of this research is to investigate the rainfall erosion index that has the highest correlation to the surface runoff volume and the amount of soil erosion. In addition, the aim of this research is to determine the effective rainfall erosion index to predict soil erosion based on observations.

Rainfall Erosivity Variations and Their Relationship with Sediment Delivery Changes in the Lancang River Basin

open access: yesHydrology
Rainfall erosivity is a key driver of soil erosion and sediment delivery in the Lancang River Basin, but its spatiotemporal variations and relationship with sediment delivery changes remain unquantified.

Assessing the sources of uncertainty associated with the calculation of rainfall kinetic energy and erosivity – application to the Upper Llobregat Basin, NE Spain [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011
The diverse sources of uncertainty associated with the calculation of rainfall kinetic energy and rainfall erosivity, calculated from precipitation data, were investigated at a range of temporal and spatial scales in a mountainous river basin (504 km< ...

Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

PRODUCTION IN RELATION TO RAINFALL, SUPERPHOSPHATE AND EROSION* [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1965
Using regression analysis, this paper studies the influence of rainfall, superphosphate and erosion on wool and wheat production in parts of Victoria. It shows that quantitative account can be taken of erosion, as well as of rainfall and superphosphate; and that the impact of erosion is much more significant relative to grain production than to wool ...

Predicting Rainfall Erosivity in Honduras [PDF]

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, 1997
Abstract Iso‐erodent maps can be used in soil conservation planning to identify regions with high rainfall erosive potential. This study was conducted to determine the significance of elevation in predicting the rainfall erosivity index ( R ) in addition to the average ...

Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...
