Vegetation Drastically Reduces Wind Erosion: An Implementation of the RWEQ in the Mongolian Gobi Steppe

open access: yesLand, 2022
Soil loss prevention is an important ecosystem service for protecting human and environmental health. Using spatiotemporal climate and environmental data of the Eastern Gobi Steppe, a region missing from previous studies of Mongolian wind-based soil ...

Developing an automatic collector of runoff for studies using rainfall simulators [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2023
Soil erosion studies using rainfall simulators are generally expensive and time consuming. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop a prototype of an automatic runoff collector, capable of real-time quantifying runoff volume and soil loss in field ...

Erosão em sistema plantio direto: influência do comprimento de rampa e da direção de semeadura Erosion in no-tillage system: influence of ramp length and seeding direction

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2011
O sistema plantio direto (SPD) é considerado o mais eficiente para controle da erosão em áreas de culturas anuais; entretanto, problemas de erosão com a formação de sulcos e ravinas em áreas de SPD, vêm sendo observados, sugerindo que práticas mecânicas,

Ammonia volatilization, nitrogen in soil, and growth of barley after application of peat manure and pig slurry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Peat is added to manure, because its low pH and capacity to adsorb ammonia (NH3) give it potential to reduce nitrogen (N) loss. Peat manure was prepared by mixing pig slurry with moderately humified Sphagnum peat. Less than 1% of applied ammoniacal N was

An Investigation on Accuracy and Applicability of USLE Model in Estimation of Soil Loss in Elevated Mountainous Areas (Case Study: the Tibetan Plateau)

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2021
The annual soil erosion in different regions of the world has been estimated using various empirical and numerical methods whose accuracy is very dependent on their utilized parameters.

Evaluating the impacts of watershed rehabilitation and irrigation interventions on vegetation greenness and soil erosion using remote sensing and biophysical modelling in Feresmay watershed in Ethiopia

open access: yesAll Earth, 2023
Soil erosion and subsequent land degradation undermine efforts to ensure food security and environmental sustainability in Ethiopia. The government of Ethiopia has implemented extensive soil and water conservation (SWC) programs in severely degraded and ...

Enrichment of organic carbon in sediment transport by interrill and rill erosion processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Erosion and loss of organic carbon (OC) result in degradation of the soil surface. Rill and interrill erosion processes on a silt loam soil were examined in laboratory rainfall and flume experiments.

Determination of Cover and Land Management Factors for Soil Loss Prediction in Cameron Highlands, Malaysia

open access: yesAgriculture, 2021
Many new agricultural activities resulted in severe soil erosion across the Cameron Highlands’ land surface. Therefore, this study determines the cover (C) and land management (P) factors of the USLE for predicting soil loss risk in Cameron Highlands ...

A rainfall simulation study on the relationships between soil test P versus dissolved and potentially bioavailable particulate phosphorus forms in runoff [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Runoff from clayey soils often contains abundant particulate phoshorus (PP), part of which may solubilize in surface waters. Monitoring losses of potentially bioavailable forms of PP is expensive, calling for other ways to predict them.

The effects of Rubus hyrcanus L. and Philonotis marchica (Hedw.) Brid. on soil loss prevention from cutslopes of a forest road

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2012
The effects of Rubus hyrcanus L. and Philonotis marchica (Hedw.) Bridon on runoff generation and soil loss from cutslopes of forest roads were investigated.
