COMPARISON OF SOME DETACHABILITY INDICES IN RELATION TO SOIL ERODIBILITY ( KUSLE ) FOR CALCAREOUS SOILS [PDF]

open access: yesMesopotamia Journal of Agriculture, 2019
The objective of this study was to use some indices related to soil aggregate instead of soil erodibility factor KUSLE of the universal soil loss equation ( USLE ) for a selected calcareous soils.

Analysis of Alfisol Soil Infiltration Rate on Various Land Cover and Its Effect on Soil Erodibility in Mount Bromo Special Purpose Forest Area, Indonesia

open access: yesJurnal Sylva Lestari
Plant canopies can protect the soil surface from raindrops and rooting activities that cause changes in biophysical properties. A low infiltration rate will reduce the soil’s capacity to store water to be low, resulting in a high soil erodibility value ...

The USLE soil erodibility nomograph revisited

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2023
The nomograph by Wischmeier et al. (1971) for calculating the K-factor in the USLE was extremely useful when there was low access to calculators. However, the generalised calculation of this factor requires the development of analytic procedures. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the nomograph and its underlying equation, which is applicable ...

A flume for studying the relative erodibility of soils and sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
A flume has been built for studying the erodibility of soils and sediments by gullying. It consists of two boxes containing undisturbed soil samples. One box is set above the other and water from a stilling tank passes over the soil of the upper box and ...

Soil erodibility mapping using three approaches in the Tangiers province –Northern Morocco

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2016
Soil erodibility is a key factor in assessing soil loss rates. In fact, soil loss is the most occurring land degradation form in Morocco, affecting rural and urban vulnerable areas. This work deals with large scale mapping of soil erodibility using three

Surface Erosion and Sedimentation Associated with Forest Land Use in Interior Alaska [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
Completion reportThe magnitude of sheet-rill erosion associated with various landscape manipulations is presented. The Universal Soil Loss Equation's usefulness for predicting annual sheet-rill erosion within interior Alaska is confirmed ...

Tolerable versus actual soil erosion rates in Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Erosion is a major threat to soil resources in Europe, and may impair their ability to deliver a range of ecosystem goods and services. This is reflected by the European Commission's Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection, which recommends an indicator ...

Effects of ameliorative afforestation on the erodibility factor and soil loss in the Grdelica gorge

open access: yesGlasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta Univerziteta u Banjoj Luci, 2018
The paper presents research carried out in the area of Grdelica gorge in 60 years old black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold.) stands. The aim of this study was to determine whether the applied planting method of ameliorative afforestation had an impact on ...
