Soil Erosion and Controls in the Slope-Gully System of the Loess Plateau of China: A Review

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
The Loess Plateau has long been suffering from serious soil erosion of which erosion from the slope-gully system is now dominant. The slope-gully system is characterized with distinctive erosion distribution zones consisting of inner and inter gully ...

Evaluation of soil erosion risk and sedimentation potential by using EPM model in Gabric basin- SE Hormozgan- Iran [PDF]

مخاطرات محیط طبیعی, 2017
Soil erosion is a complex process that is difficult to measure the true extent of that. For analysis of runoff, erosion, and sediment is needed a deep understanding of production processes.The statistical methods often are used for calculating the total ...

Watershed-based soil erosion and sediment yield modeling in the Rib watershed of the Upper Blue Nile Basin, Ethiopia

Energy Nexus, 2021
Soil erosion is a major environmental problem that degrades topsoil and agricultural land productivity in mountainous areas such as Ethiopia. Soil erosion estimation is critical for the planning of erosion control plans in an agriculture-dependent ...

Understanding sediment connectivity from soil erosion perspective

Shui kexue jinzhan, 2021
Sediment connectivity is closely related to geomorphology, topography, ecological hydrology, soil erosion, nutrient and pollutant movement, and water quality conservation. As one of the hot topics in soil erosion research during the past decade, sediment

Lateral Marsh Edge Erosion as a Source of Sediments for Vertical Marsh Accretion [PDF]

, 2018
With sea level rise accelerating and sediment inputs to the coast declining worldwide, there is concern that tidal wetlands will drown. To better understand this concern, sources of sediment contributing to marsh elevation gain were computed for Plum ...

Two-dimensional (2D) numerical modelling of rainfall induced overland flow, infiltration and soil erosion: comparison with laboratory rainfall-runoff simulations on a two-directional slope soil flume

Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2021
This paper presents a two-dimensional (2D) numerical model of soil erosion and sediment transport resulting from rainfall induced overland flow. It is a spatial and temporal dynamic model combining physical and empirical laws and comprises: i) An ...

Evaluating the importance of surface soil contributions to reservoir sediment in alpine environments: a combined modelling and fingerprinting approach in the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2014
Soil in alpine environments plays a key role in the development of ecosystem services and in order to maintain and preserve this important resource, information is required on processes that lead to soil erosion.

Enrichment of organic carbon in sediment transport by interrill and rill erosion processes [PDF]

, 2008
Erosion and loss of organic carbon (OC) result in degradation of the soil surface. Rill and interrill erosion processes on a silt loam soil were examined in laboratory rainfall and flume experiments.
