Quantifying model uncertainty to improve watershed-level ecosystem service quantification: a global sensitivity analysis of the RUSLE [PDF]

, 2016
Ecosystem service-support tools are commonly used to guide natural resource management. Often, empirically based models are preferred due to low data requirements, simplicity and clarity. Yet, uncertainty produced by local context or parameter estimation

Assessment of Soil Erosion Over Six Decades in a Long‐Term Experiment Using Fallout 137Cs and RUSLE: A South American Case Study

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major global concern affecting agricultural productivity and land sustainability. This study investigates the magnitude and variability of soil erosion in a long‐term experiment (LTE) established in 1963 in Colonia, Uruguay, aiming to compare the performance of the 137Cs tracer technique and the RUSLE model across ...

Simulating with a Combination of RUSLE GIS and Sediment Delivery Ratio for Soil Restoration

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2023
Abstract Erosion by water is the main cause of land degradation. Landscapes degraded by erosion need to be restored in many respects, and particularly in terms of ecosystem services. From an economic and management perspective, care is needed to select priority areas and determine the means to be applied to restore them.

Estimation and mapping of soil erosion using the RUSLE model and GIS tools: A case study of the wad El Hai watershed in the western Aurès, north-eastern Algeria [PDF]

Glasnik Srpskog Geografskog Društva
Soil erosion is the main cause of siltation in dams, on the one hand, and it is one of the main causes of degradation of the agro-pedological heritage, on the other hand.

A Field Guide for Soil Erosion Risk Assessment in Olive Orchards Across Mediterranean Conditions for End‐Users and Stakeholders

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion control poses a crucial challenge to the sustainability of Mediterranean olive groves. To facilitate field‐level decision‐making, we have developed a field guide oriented to use in any type of olive orchard across the Mediterranean.

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.

Evaluating Erosional Stability of Reconstructed Mine Landscapes Using Landform Evolution Models: Parameterisation and Decadal‐Scale Erosion Assessment

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the long‐term erosional stability of post‐mining landforms remains a major challenge in open‐pit mining. Reconstructed landscapes must support the agreed post‐mining land use, such as cattle grazing in the Hunter region of southeastern Australia, requiring stable pasture and minimal soil loss.

Efecto en la erosión hídrica del suelo en pastizales y otros tipos de vegetación por cambios en el patrón de lluvias por el calentamiento global en Zacatecas, México

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2020
Para evaluar la erosión hídrica se utilizaron anomalías de temperatura y precipitación para el período 2021-2080, estimadas con un ensamble de 11 modelos de circulación global, para generar mapas de temperatura y precipitación futuras a partir de la ...
