Soil erosion modelling at European scale by using high resolution input layers [PDF]
, 2015 Soil erosion by water is one of the most widespread forms of soil degradation. Since soil erosion is difficult to measure at large scales, soil erosion models are a crucial estimation tool at regional, national and European levels. The high heterogeneity

Changes in soil susceptibility to erosion under tillage and soil fertility management practices
Circular Agricultural SystemsThe degree to which soil is susceptible to erosion is measured as soil erodibility which can be influenced by different land management options. This study evaluated the dynamics of soil erodibility to tillage and soil amendments in a maize field under ...

Analyzing the Changes of Soil Erodibility Index (K) in the Soils of Arid Regions and the Effective Factors in Central Iran (Case Study: Yazd-Ardakan Plain) [PDF]
Desert, 2012 One of the main factors of water erosion is the natural characteristics of the soil called "erodibility" or"detachability". The present study aims to analyze the variations of soil erodibility factor in different plains and thefactors related to it ...

Scale-dependent effects of tree species diversity on soil erosion resistance
Resources, Environment and SustainabilityGlobally, vegetation establishment is an important approach for controlling soil erosion, which induces land degradation. However, the understanding of the effects of tree species diversity on soil erodibility across spatial scales remains incomplete ...

Determination of wind erosion intensity on heavy clay soils
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010 Wind erosion, common problem of light-textured soils, was determined on heavy clay soils in the foothills of Bílé Karpaty Mountains, Czech Republic. Soil erodibility by wind was determined from the Map of potential erodibility of soil by wind and from ...

Soil aggregation, erodibility, and erosion rates in mountain soils (NW Alps, Italy) [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2015 Erosion is a relevant soil degradation factor in mountain agrosilvopastoral ecosystems that can be enhanced by the abandonment of agricultural land and pastures left to natural evolution.

Statistical Analysis and Rapid Prediction Method of Erodibility Parameters of Barrier Dam
工程科学与技术, 2020 The erodibility parameters of barrier dam were an important basis for the evaluation of the outburst flood in the emergency treatment of the dammed lake. The erosion rate was typically modeled with excess shear stress model and Wilson model.
