Spatial variability of soil properties and soil erodibility in the Alqueva reservoir watershed [PDF]
, 2015 The aim of this work is to investigate how the spatial variability of soil properties and soil erodibility (K factor) were affected by the changes in land use allowed by irrigation with water from a reservoir in a semiarid area.

Soil erodibility in European mountain beech forests [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2021 Forests in Europe are currently not endangered by soil erosion. However, this can change with climate change or with intensified forest management practices. Using a newly established network of plots in beech forests across Europe, the aims of this study were to (i) distinguish soil properties and erodibility indices in relation to bedrock, (ii ...

Erodibility and loss of marly drived soils
EURASIAN JOURNAL OF SOIL SCIENCE (EJSS), 2015 Considering to high distribution of the marly lands in west Azerbaijan province and high sediment yield of such lands, in this research, the relation among the form and the rate of erosion on marls with their erodibility properties were studied. Therefore, marly regions of province with the special properties were recognized and the soils samples were ...
