Coupling the modified SCS-CN and RUSLE models to simulate hydrological effects of restoring vegetation in the Loess Plateau of China [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2012
Predicting event runoff and soil loss under different land covers is essential to quantitatively evaluate the hydrological responses of vegetation restoration in the Loess Plateau of China.

Mapping annual soil loss in the southeast of Peshawar basin, Pakistan, using RUSLE model with geospatial approach

open access: yesGeology, Ecology, and Landscapes
Soil erodibility is challenging for agricultural soils, sustainable farming systems and water-food security in developing countries. Regional scale precise estimation of soil erosion is vital to save fertile soils. For this purpose, geospatial technology

Structural Connectivity Shaped by Cryospheric Degradation Modulates Sediment Transport Dynamics in High Mountain Asia

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Rapid atmospheric warming has transformed cryospheric landscapes, affecting sediment transport processes. However, our understanding of hillslope and riverine connectivity in large headwaters remains limited. Here, we apply the Index of Connectivity (IC) to model structural connectivity for High Mountain Asia (HMA).

The EU target for organic farming: Potential economic and environmental impacts of two alternative pathways

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 602-623, May 2025.
Abstract The EU aims to reach 25% of the total agricultural area under organic farming by 2030. Interlinking a farm‐level and agro‐economic market model, we assess impacts of achieving the target either at Member State or aggregated EU level. Results show that flexible budget allocation across Member States would be more cost‐efficient and less ...

A new approach to estimate cover-management factor of RUSLE and validation of RUSLE model in the watershed of Kartalkaya Dam

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology, 2015
RUSLE is one of the most widely used soil erosion model worldwide. However, some of the input parameters of RUSLE may require extensive field and laboratory studies, and therefore in most of the cases these parameters are estimated according to some alternative approaches. In this context, cover-management factor (C) has significant importance since it

Modelling the impact of trenches on soil erosion control using OpenLISEM on Mount Elgon, Uganda

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 6, May 2025.
This study characterised trenches at field level and evaluated trench effectiveness in erosion control at sub‐catchment level using OpenLISEM in the Mount Elgon region, Uganda. Field surveys reveal diverse trench dimensions (average length: 3 m, width: 0.7 m, depth: 0.5 m), mainly on contour lines in about 62% of the agricultural area.

Land use, hydroclimate and damming influence organic carbon sedimentation in a flood pulse wetland, Malaysia

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 657-670, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Water bodies located in floodplains and tropical forests are known to be important carbon stores, but many are subjected to intensive pressures from damming, land use and climate changes. Sedimentary records preserve long‐term archives for understanding how such changes affect the quantity and quality of carbon stores.

Applicability Comparison of GIS-Based RUSLE and SEMMA for Risk Assessment of Soil Erosion in Wildfire Watersheds

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The second-largest wildfire in the history of South Korea occurred in 2022 due to strong winds and dry climates. Quantitative evaluation of soil erosion is necessary to prevent subsequent sediment disasters in the wildfire areas. The erosion rates in two
