Trends in Land Use, Irrigation, and Streamflow Alteration in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
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]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015
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

open access: yesWater, 2020
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]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015
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]

open access: yesGeomorphology, 2011
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 ...

Effects of agricultural conservation practices on oxbow lake watersheds in the Mississippi River alluvial plain

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2013
Agricultural lands are considered to be a major source of nonpoint source pollutants such as sediment, pesticides and nutrients in the United States.

Quantifying the changes of soil surface microroughness due to rainfall impact on a smooth surface [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2017
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 ...

Using taxa-based approaches to delineate stream macroinvertebrate assemblage responses to stressor gradients in modified alluvial agroecosystems

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Alluvial plain landscapes are some of the most agriculturally productive lands in the world but often have modified stream ecosystems due to cultivation history. This context requires consideration when establishing water quality management goals.

Analitic Investigation of the Regularities of Changing Dust Concentration During the Abrasive Decrease of Stone Structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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.
