A new way to geoengineer landscapes using computer‐based landform evolution models
Computer‐based Landscape Evolution Models can be used to both design and evaluate new landforms. Abstract The design and construction of post‐mining landforms is a complex undertaking where any structure requires integration with underlying materials and the surrounding unmined or undisturbed landscape.

Assessment Erosion 3D Hazard with USLE and Surfer Tool: a Case Study of Sumani Watershed in West Sumatra Indonesia [PDF]
Quantitative evaluation of soil erosion rate is an important basic to investigate and improve land use system, which has not been sufficiently conducted in Indonesia. The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and Erosion Three Dimension (E3D) in ...

ABSTRACT For post‐mining landscapes, erosion rates need to be demonstrably similar to that of the surrounding areas. Post‐mining landscapes are assessed (usually with a numerical model) to determine their erosion potential both in the pre‐ and post‐construction phases. Field plots, which rely on natural rainfall, provide the most reliable data; however,

ABSTRACT By altering hydrological and geomorphological processes at watershed scales, humans have substantially influenced the movement of sediment on Earth's surface. Despite widespread recognition of human impacts on erosion and deposition, few studies have assessed the magnitude of change in watershed‐scale sediment fluxes before and after the ...

Integrando SIG e USLE para mapeamento da perda de solo em área de proteção ambiental
O uso de geotecnologias no planejamento ambiental tem sido instrumento amplamente utilizado. Nesse estudo utilizou-se de um Sistema de Informações Geográficas (SIG) e da Linguagem Espacial para Geoprocessamento Algébrico (LEGAL) para o processamento da ...

Predicting rainfall kinetic energy under forest canopies—A pilot study using ULS
We applied the vegetation splash factor to predict the effect of vegetation on kinetic energy of rainfall and validated it with field data for the first time. Abstract Rainfall erosivity, expressed in kinetic energy, is determined by intensity, velocity and drop size distribution. In natural precipitation, these properties vary and can be substantially
