Regionalization of monthly rainfall erosivity patterns in Switzerland [PDF]
Hydrology 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).

Influence of the rainfall measurement interval on the erosivity determinations in the Mediterranean area [PDF]
, 2006 The single-storm erosion index, EI, of the USLE and RUSLE models may vary appreciably with the rainfall measurement interval, Dt. However, the effect of Dt on EI has not been investigated in the Mediterranean area.

Predicting Rainfall Erosivity in Honduras [PDF]
Soil 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 ...

An assessment of the global impact of 21st century land use change on soil erosion [PDF]
, 2017 Human activity and related land use change are the primary cause of accelerated soil erosion, which has substantial implications for nutrient and carbon cycling, land productivity and in turn, worldwide socio-economic conditions.

Spatio-temporal variability of erosivity in Mato Grosso, Brazil [PDF]
, 2018 The impact of rainfall on surfaces lacking vegetal cover can dissociate soil particles, thereby initiating the erosion process. This is known as rainfall erosivity and is expressed by the R factor in the Universal Soil Loss Equation.

Assessment Erosion 3D Hazard with USLE and Surfer Tool: a Case Study of Sumani Watershed in West Sumatra Indonesia [PDF]
, 2013 Quantitative evaluation of soil erosion rate is an important basic to investigate and improve land use system, which has not been sufficiently conducted in Indonesia. The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and Erosion Three Dimension (E3D) in ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Utilizing molecular engineering for network design, three pesticide‐loaded organogels (PLOs) carriers exhibiting varying degrees of flexibility were prepared. The mechanical properties of these carriers, tunable via their network molecular structures, enhance their structural adaptability and retention stability at biological interfaces, thereby ...

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

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The ultrathin (2.5 nm) MXene film self‐assembled at liquid interfaces breaks the trade‐off between transparency (82.5 %) and photothermal conversion effect (DT∼25.1°C ± 2.9 °C) under 100 mW cm−2. After encapsulated by a slippery surface with low adhesion, this transparent film can be applied in smart windows, eyewear, and optical sensors to autonomous ...
