Water shortages in arid and semi-arid ecosystems can cause changes to the structures and
functions of landscapes and respective ecosystem services. A useful framework for …

Earthquakes can generate large amounts of co-seismic landslide debris and unstable
hillslopes, which supply abundant material sources for subsequent debris flow activities …

In silvopastoral environments, landslide erosion results in loss of productive soils and
pasture. Sediment delivered to streams from landslides contributes to the degradation of …

Soil erosion is an important cause of global land degradation and other ecological and
environmental problems. Revealing the influence mechanism of land use/cover change …

In this paper we introduce HOTSED, a novel, innovative GIS-based model designed for
assessing potential hotspots of sediment dynamics at watershed scale. HOTSED integrates …

The structural controls of sediment connectivity are poorly understood in low-gradient
watersheds and stream networks. We developed a field-and modeling-based framework to …

In many environments, climate change causes an increase in the frequency and magnitude
of Large Infrequent Disturbances (LIDs). LIDs make fragile areas, as mountain basins, even …

Functional connectivity refers to the system dynamics and sediment transfer in a
geomorphological system. It is usually quantified through digital elevation models of …

Sediment connectivity is a fundamental concept for understanding sediment dynamics within
watersheds, serving as a crucial component in watershed management and soil and water …

Sediment budgeting within a landscape is useful in understanding landscape evolution, and
hazard prediction and assessment. It has been observed that only a fraction of the total …
