Replacing Corn on Sloping Farmland by Bioenergy Crops With Optimized Harvest Frequencies: Implications for Soil and Water Conservation and Biofuel Production

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The promise of bioenergy crops includes their high productivity, suitability for marginal land, and environmentally friendly effects. Utilizing a previously calibrated Soil and Water Assessment Tool model, the effects of replacing corn with perennial bioenergy crops of Alamo switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) and Miscanthus × giganteus on soil ...

Evaluating Watershed Response Using WEPPcloud—EU for Wildfire Burned Areas in Portugal

Hydrological Processes, Volume 39, Issue 7, July 2025.
We tested WEPPcloud—European Union (EU) model on two burned catchments in Portugal, revealing the importance of local data for accurate simulation. Incorporating national and catchment‐specific data decreased equifinality and simplified model calibration.

Use of the Calibrated Curve Number and a Runoff‐Driven USLE Model to Estimate Event Soil Loss From Sparacia (Sicily, Southern Italy) Plots

Hydrological Processes, Volume 39, Issue 7, July 2025.
The curve number (CN) is estimated from rainfall‐runoff plot data. It is effective for events producing rills and with rainfall depth P over the median value recorded at the station. The simulated runoff can be incorporated into the USLE‐MB to satisfactorily predict soil loss, Ae, due to the simultaneous occurrence of interrill and rill erosion ...

Land use and regulating ecosystem services scenarios for the Brazilian Pantanal and its surroundings under different storylines of future regional development

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
The future of the Pantanal holds great promise if better laws, public policies, and socio‐ecological transitions are adopted. Here, we present future scenarios comparing these choices for the coming decades Abstract The Pantanal, the largest worldwide continuous wetland, is considered a global hotspot of ecosystem services.
