Soil erosion is generally recognized as the dominant process of land degradation. The
formation and expansion of gullies is often a highly significant process of soil erosion …

Assessments of the implications of soil erosion require quantification of soil erosion rates
(SE) and sediment yield (SSY) at regional scales under present and future climate and land …

Assessing the impacts of climatic and, in particular, land use changes on rates of soil
erosion by water is the objective of many national and international research projects …

Landscape structure, or the spatial organization of different land units, has an impact on
erosion and sedimentation on agricultural land. However, current erosion models …

The temporal evolution of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in a river debouching
into the ocean provides vital insights into erosion processes in the watershed and dictates …

In this paper a spatially distributed model for the calculation of sediment delivery to river
channels is presented (SEDEM: SEdiment DElivery Model). The model consists of two …

Our understanding about the regional variation of Sediment Yield (SY) in Europe and its
scale dependency currently relies on a limited number of data for mainly larger river …

Establishing catchment suspended sediment sources is fraught with difficulty. Data
collection comprises indirect and direct approaches and an overview is provided. The …

Data on sediment yield from 26 small cultivated catchments (10–10000 ha) in central
Belgium were collected, based on sedimentation rates in small flood retention ponds. Area …

Soil erosion and sediment delivery cause many environmental problems posing a
substantial financial burden upon society. Policy makers therefore look for a strategy to …
