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

Simulating event-scale rainfall erosivity across European climatic regions [PDF]
Soil erosion is time compressed into a number of episodic erosive rainfall events with an associated potential to detach and transport soil particles (rainfall erosivity), each possessing unique spatial and temporal characteristics.

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

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 in New Zealand [PDF]
In a country, where rainfall can reach dimensions up to 10000 mm/year, water erosion is a very important task. This study aims to evaluate the spatial distribution of rainfall erosivity over the last decades and to produce a map of average annual rainfall erosivity for New Zealand.
