Gully erosion has important on and off site effects. Therefore, several studies have been
conducted over the past decades to quantify gully headcut retreat (GHR) in different …

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 …

Water erosion is a major threat to biodiversity, according to the European Commission's Soil
