Research into post-wildfire effects began in the United States more than 70years ago and
only later extended to other parts of the world. Post-wildfire responses are typically transient …

The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is the most widely used and misused prediction
equation in the world. Although it was designed to predict long-term average annual soil …

This chapter focuses on physical and chemical indicators of soil quality as related to soil
erosion by water. It illustrates a procedure that can be tailored to site‐specific situations and …

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 …

ROSION prediction is the most widely used and most effective tool for E soil conservation
planning and design in the United States. Because it is impossible to monitor the influence …

Raindrop‐impact‐induced erosion is initiated when detachment of soil particles from the
surface of the soil results from an expenditure of raindrop energy. Once detachment by …

Abstract The Mediterranean Sea became disconnected from the world's oceans and mostly
desiccated by evaporation about 5.6 million years ago during the Messinian salinity crisis …

Rills often act as sediment sources and the dominant sediment and water transport
mechanism for hillslopes. Six experiments were conducted on two soils and a uniform sand …

Abstract The Messinian salinity crisis,(5.96 to 5.33 million years ago) was caused by
reduced water inflow from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea resulting in …

The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) was initiated in August 1985 to develop new-
generation water erosion prediction technology for use by federal action agencies involved …
