Investigation of Changes in Soil Erodibility Using the USLE Model and Determination of Effective Factors (Case Study: Dorahan Watershed-Borujen City) [PDF]

علوم آب و خاک
One of the main factors contributing to water erosion is the inherent characteristic of soil erodibility. Erodibility depends on particle size distribution, organic matter, structure, and soil permeability.

Erosion Control Effects of a Polymer-Based Soil Conditioner on Red Soil in Okinawa, Japan

Agronomy
Preventing soil degradation caused by water erosion is essential for sustainable agriculture and long-term agroecological development. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) polymer-based soil ...

Spatial Behavior of Soil Erodibility in the La Villa River Basin, Panama

, 2021
Introduction: Soil erodibility is an important factor in understanding the erosion that takes place in a territory. This is a parameter that can behave erratically in small spaces, but that describes a trend in larger spaces.

Changes of Soil Aggregate Stability as a Result of the Effect of Freeze-thaw Cycles

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2015
The objective of the present research was to assess the changes in soil erodibility during the non-vegetation period as one of the factors affecting the snowmelt erosion.

Development of laboratory instrumentation for the study of soil erodibility

, 1968
In order to carry out a study of the relative efficiency of various erodibility indices, and of the relative erodibility of soils developed in the Peak District of Derbyshire (England), three instruments were developed.

Evaluating the changes in soil erodibility factor (K) induced by exclosures of different ages, Kola Tembien, Tigray, Ethiopia

Discover Environment
Although exclosures were widely implemented to reverse land degradation processes in Tigray region, North Ethiopia, there is a lack of scientific studies on how these exclosures impact the soil erodibility factor. Therefore, this research was carried out

Assessing spatial variability and erosion susceptibility of soils in hilly agricultural areas in Southern Italy

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2020
Soil erosion is one of the main environmental problems in the Mediterranean area. This problem is becoming even more important especially in Italy, in the Apennines, where severe erosive processes occur due to the action of concentrated running water ...

Aggregation characteristics and maturity of Peak District soils

, 1969
Soil aggregation and aggregate stability are fundamental factors in determination of soil erodibility. The aggregation characteristics of soils in a region of high erosion potential are measured, and controlling factors examined.

Exploring soil erodibility: integrating field surveys, laboratory analysis, and geospatial techniques in sloping agricultural terrains

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management
The escalating trend of land degradation poses a significant challenge, especially in sloping agricultural terrains, driven by the increasing global demand for food and the limited availability of flat arable land.
