Assessing and Mapping Erosion Risk for Velikoy Sub-watershed within Coruh River Basin in Turkey

Doğal Afetler ve Çevre Dergisi, 2018
Vegetation on earth surface is the integral part of the world ecosystems in functioning for varying spatial and temporal scales. Along with other benefits, land-use as a forest can dramatically reduce the soil erosion and water pollution by protecting ...

A step towards a holistic assessment of soil degradation in Europe: Coupling on-site erosion with sediment transfer and carbon fluxes [PDF]

, 2017
Soil degradation due to erosion is connected to two serious environmental impacts: (i) on-site soil loss and (ii) off-site effects of sediment transfer through the landscape.

USING CLIGEN TO GENERATE RUSLE CLIMATE INPUTS

Transactions of the ASAE, 2002
CLIGEN is a stochastic weather generator that produces continuous daily variables to drive process–based runoff and erosion prediction models such as WEPP. To test CLIGEN’s ability to generate precipitation–related variables, which are particularly important to runoff and erosion prediction, algorithms were developed to compute the R–factor, its ...

Impacts of Climate, Organic Management, and Degradation Status on Soil Biodiversity in Agroecosystems Worldwide

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 9, September 2025.
Unsustainable farming, soil degradation, and climate change threaten the biodiversity of life within soils, which is essential for healthy ecosystems. However, the effects of sustainable farming strategies, such as organic agriculture, on soil biodiversity are still poorly understood. In this work, we assessed soil biodiversity status in agroecosystems

Estimating the effects of water-induced shallow landslides on soil erosion [PDF]

, 2015
Rainfall induced landslides and soil erosion are part of a complex system of multiple interacting processes, and both are capable of significantly affecting sediment budgets.

Estimating rainfall erosivity from daily precipitation records: a comparison among methods using data from the Ebro Basin (NE Spain) [PDF]

, 2009
Among the major factors controlling soil erosion, as vegetation cover or soil erodibility, rainfall erosivity has a paramount importance since it is difficult to predict and control by humans.

Assessing soil erosion through the implementation of the RUSLE model and geospatial technology in the Isser watershed, northern Algeria

Water supply : the review journal of the International Water Supply Association
Soil erosion, triggered by rainfall and runoff, poses a significant challenge for Mediterranean countries, leading to sedimentation in dam reservoirs, decreased storage capacities, and reduced agricultural fertility.

Harnessing Subsurface Flow at the Soil‐Bedrock Interface as a Hidden Water Resource for Rainwater Harvesting: Insights From Long‐Term Hydrological Monitoring on a Humid Karst Hillslope

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems are crucial for mitigating water scarcity in karst landscapes; however, their efficiency remains low even in high‐rainfall areas due to rapid infiltration and limited surface water retention. This study explores the potential of subsurface flow (SSF) at the soil‐bedrock interface as an underutilized water ...
