Targeting phosphorus loss with carbon farming practices? Results from an on-farm study. [PDF]
Abstract Agricultural soils lose P to waterbodies and C to the atmosphere. Reversing the C trend requires change in management (carbon farming), but what is the effect of carbon farming practices on P transport from soils to waterbodies? This was empirically studied by analyzing the P loss risks from 20 farms participating in a 5‐year on‐farm carbon ...

Spatial Assessment of Land Degradation Risk in the Choke Mountain Watershed. [PDF]
Assessing land degradation is essential for identifying susceptible regions and planning sustainable landscape management approaches. This research employed a combination of geographic information system (GIS) and multicriteria analysis (MCA) to delineate and evaluate land degradation within the Choke Mountain watershed of the upper Blue Nile.

Introducing seasonal snow memory into the RUSLE
Abstract Purpose The sediment supply to rivers, lakes, and reservoirs has a great influence on hydro-morphological processes. For instance, long-term predictions of bathymetric change for modeling climate change scenarios require an objective calculation procedure of sediment load as a function of catchment ...

Evaluation of soil erosion and sediment yield spatio-temporal pattern during 1990–2019
Land use/land cover (LULC) change is an important measure to monitor the land degradation. This study focused on the Sebeya watershed located in the western province of Rwanda to evaluate the soil erosion and sediment yield spatio-temporal pattern from ...

Spatial variability of soil properties and soil erodibility in the Alqueva reservoir watershed [PDF]
The aim of this work is to investigate how the spatial variability of soil properties and soil erodibility (K factor) were affected by the changes in land use allowed by irrigation with water from a reservoir in a semiarid area.

Assessment soil erotion risk in kohpayeh - segzi plain using Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RSLE) [PDF]
Soil erosion is one of the most important environmental problems we face today. Increasing human exploitation and lack of proper management of the natural environment has a great impact on intensifying the process of soil degradation and erosion. In this
