Abstract Information about Leptospermum scoparium (Myrtaceae), the most widespread and
important New Zealand indigenous shrub species, is reviewed. L. scoparium is a variable …

To assess the effects of forest management on soil erosion in Southeast Asia, clear
distinctions must be made between surface erosion and landslide processes. Although …

Shallow, rainfall-triggered landslides are an important catchment process that affect the rate
and calibre of sediment within river networks and create a significant hazard, particularly …

The vegetation of Pinus radiata plantation forests in New Zealand was studied to examine
how the indigenous flora has responded to this novel habitat. A chronosequence of stands …

Erosion control is an important regulating ecosystem service in New Zealand because of the
diversity and extent of erosion processes. Erosion rates in New Zealand are naturally very …

Abstract Silvopastoralism in New Zealand's highly erodible hill country is an important form
of erosion and sediment control. Yet, there has been little quantitative work to establish the …

Ecological factors are important for shallow landslide risk assessment. Various ecological
indicators have been previously proposed and studied. However, because the functional …

Stability analyses of vegetated hillslopes are usually carried out by the limit equilibrium (LE)
method where shear displacement is not taken into account. Experiments show that soil with …

Rainfall-induced shallow landslides are a common geohazard in mountainous areas, often
causing human and economic losses. The frequency and characteristics of these landslides …
