Trends in Land Use, Irrigation, and Streamflow Alteration in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain
The Mississippi River Alluvial Plain is a critical region for agricultural production in the United States, providing the majority of the nation's rice, catfish, and cotton.

Distributed soil loss estimation system including ephemeral gully development and tillage erosion [PDF]
A new modelling system is being developed to provide spatially-distributed runoff and soil erosion predictions for conservation planning that integrates the 2D grid-based variant of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation, version 2 model (RUSLER), the ...

Classification of Management Alternatives to Combat Reservoir Sedimentation
Sedimentation is steadily depleting reservoir capacity worldwide, threatening the reliability of water supplies, flood control, hydropower energy and other benefits that form the basis of today’s water-intensive society.

Predicting ephemeral gully erosion with RUSLER and EphGEE [PDF]
Ephemeral gully erosion is not included in predictions made with the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation, version 2 (RUSLE2). A new distributed application called RUSLER (RUSLE2-Raster) predicts distributed soil loss and its output can be linked with ...

Role of sediment in speleogenesis; sedimentation and paragenesis [PDF]
Although the effects of sedimentation in caves have been recognised for many years, its role in speleogenesis is frequently overlooked. Influxes of sediment into a cave system fundamentally alter the way cave passages develop, either by alluviation in a vadose environment, forcing lateral corrosion and the development of notches, or by upwards ...

Quantifying the changes of soil surface microroughness due to rainfall impact on a smooth surface [PDF]
This study examines the rainfall-induced change in soil microroughness of a bare smooth soil surface in an agricultural field. The majority of soil microroughness studies have focused on surface roughness on the order of ∼ 5–50 mm and ...

Analitic Investigation of the Regularities of Changing Dust Concentration During the Abrasive Decrease of Stone Structures [PDF]
In the process of repair or restoration of building structures, it is often necessary to strengthen building structures from limestone-shell rock, concrete, reinforced concrete, hard materials-granite, basalt, etc.
