Adaptability of rainfall simulators as a research tool on urban sealed surfaces–a review
Rainfall simulators can be a useful research tool for some purposes but are quite unsuitable
for others. They have been useful in soil erosion and infiltration studies for over eight …

Impact of severe rain storms on soil erosion: Experimental evaluation of wind-driven rain and its implications for natural hazard management
Prediction and risk assessment of hydrological extremes are great challenges. Following
climate predictions, frequent and violent rainstorms will become a new hazard to several …

Rainfall and human activity impacts on soil losses and rill erosion in vineyards (Ruwer Valley, Germany)
Vineyards are one of the eco-geomorphological systems most conditioned by human activity
in Germany. The vineyards of the Ruwer Valley (Germany) are characterized by high soil …

Quantification of particle detachment by rain splash and wind-driven rain splash
A surface-hitting raindrop transfers a part of its kinetic energy onto the surface and thereby
destroys aggregates and moves soil particles. The magnitude of interrill processes is largely …

On-site water and wind erosion experiments reveal relative impact on total soil erosion
The relative impact of water and wind on total erosion was investigated by means of an
experimental-empirical study. Wind erosion and water erosion were measured at five …

Experimental investigation of rain-induced splash and wash processes under wind-driven rain
The simultaneous occurrence of rain and wind during an erosion event may cause severe
soil loss. Although, many studies have been conducted on the single effects of rain and wind …

The effect of rain, wind-driven rain and wind on particle transport under controlled laboratory conditions
Transport of soil particles prior to the occurrence of overland flow is one of the big question
marks in soil erosion studies. The exact measurement of short-distance transported soil …

Wind effects on soil erosion by water—A sensitivity analysis using model simulations on catchment scale
J Schmidt, M Werner, M Schindewolf - Catena, 2017 - Elsevier
Soil erosion by water is affected by raindrops hitting the soil surface. Under windy conditions
the droplets are forced to divert from vertical fall which affects their erosional intensity. To …
