Response of soil nutrients and erodibility to slope aspect in the northern agro-pastoral ecotone, China [PDF]
Soil erosion, considered a major environmental and social problem, leads to the loss of soil nutrients and the degradation of soil structure and impacts plant growth.

Soil erodibility in European mountain beech forests [PDF]
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 ...

High-resolution digital mapping of soil erodibility in China
Soil erodibility (K) is the intrinsic susceptibility of a soil to water erosion. Currently, its detailed and accurate spatial distribution information especially over large areas is urgently required for national and regional soil erosion assessment and ...

Digital mapping of soil erodibility for water erosion in New South Wales, Australia [PDF]
Soil erodibility represents the soil's response to rainfall and run-off erosivity and is related to soil properties such as organic matter content, texture, structure, permeability and aggregate stability.

Soil erodibility in Europe: a high-resolution dataset based on LUCAS [PDF]
The greatest obstacle to soil erosion modelling at larger spatial scales is the lack of data on soil characteristics. One key parameter for modelling soil erosion is the soil erodibility, expressed as the K-factor in the widely used soil erosion model ...

Erodibility and loss of marly drived soils
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 ...

Modeling the dynamics of soil erosion and size-selective sediment transport over nonuniform topography in flume-scale experiments [PDF]
Soil erosion and the associated nutrient fluxes can lead to severe degradation of surface waters. Given that both sediment transport and nutrient sorption are size selective, it is important to predict the particle size distribution (PSD) as well as the ...

A COMPARISON STUDY BETWEEN EPIC AND MODIFIED EPIC MODELS IN ASSESSING THE ERODIBILITY FOR ALLUVIAL SOILS [PDF]
The study aimed to determine the effect of spatial variability on the erodibility factor (K-factor) for alluvial soils located at Tigris river bank using two empirical models ,KEPIC and modified KEPIC( Kr).The studied alluvial soils were extended ...
