Evaluation of Human Impact on Sediment Dynamics in an Intensively Managed Agricultural Watershed Using Distributed Modeling

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 8, Page 1616-1629, October 2025.
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 ...

A Benefit Cost Analysis of a Soil Erosion Control Program for the Northern Watershed of Lake Chicot, Arkansas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
Lake Chicot, a 5,025-acre oxbow lake created by the ancient meandering of the Mississippi River, is located near the town of Lake Village in Chicot County of southeastern Arkansas (Fig. 1). Today the lake is separated into a northern basin of 1,154 acres

Soil Erosion: A Review of Models and Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Soil erosion is a global environmental problem influenced by both natural and human factors. Modeling provides a quantitative and consistent approach to estimate soil erosion and sediment yield under a wide range of conditions, and is needed to guide the

Predicting rainfall kinetic energy under forest canopies—A pilot study using ULS

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 11, 15 September 2025.
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

Pemetaan sebaran erosi tanah prediksi melalui integrasi model USLE ke dalam Sistem Informasi Geografis

open access: yesJournal of Natural Resources and Environmental Management, 2020
Penerapan model USLE pada beberapa Daerah Aliran Sungai (DAS) di Indonesia menunjukkan keragaman proses yang mempengaruhi terjadinya erosi tanah. Integrasi model USLE ke dalam Sistem Informasi Geografis (SIG) mampu memberikan gambaran spasial dari ...

L'Osservatorio delle disuguaglianze dell'Azienda USL di Ferrara

open access: yesItalian Journal of Public Health, 2003
È ormai riconosciuto che bassa condizione socio-economica e limitato sviluppo culturale possono agire negativamente sul benessere individuale e sul livello di salute collettiva e determinano criticità nell’accesso alle cure, fenomeni che appaiono prevedibili, prevenibili e correggibili per migliorare la qualità e l’efficienza del sistema sanitario ...

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

open access: yesEarth'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

open access: yesHydrological 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

open access: yesHydrological 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 ...
