As any model of real-world phenomena, soil erosion models must be tested against
empirical evidence to have their performance evaluated. This is critical to develop …

Accurate assessment of soil water erosion (SWE) susceptibility is critical for reducing land
degradation and soil loss, and for mitigating the negative impacts of erosion on ecosystem …

Erosion is caused by detachment of soil materials from the surface of the soil matrix where
they are held by cohesion and inter-particle friction, followed by transport of the detached …

Land use and climate change can influence runoff and soil erosion, threatening soil and
water conservation in the Cerrado biome in Brazil. The adoption of a process-based model …

Land degradation caused by soil erosion (SE) in forests converted into cropland under
climate change, particularly with increased rainfall intensity, is of great concern to the …

Vineyards show some of the largest erosion rates reported in agricultural areas in Europe.
Reported rates vary considerably under the same land use, since erosion processes are …

Rainfall represents the main driving force of runoff and soil erosion. Previous studies usually
focused on the effects of general rainfall characteristics at event scale on runoff and soil …

Soil erosion is mainly affected by the rainfall characteristics and land cover conditions, and
soil erosion modelling is important for evaluating land degradation status. The revised …

Soil erosion poses a major threat to the sustainability of natural ecosystems. The main
objective of this study was to investigate the effects of soil type and rainfall intensity on sheet …

Over the past 70 years, the Yangtze River Basin-the third longest river basin in the world-has
been under the influence of augmented human activities. Regarding environmental …
