Mediterranean ecosystems are commonly vulnerable to wildfires. Accelerated erosion processes due to wildfires in those environments constitute a major restrictive factor in their …
The study aims to evaluate the performance of different empirical soil erosion models (EPM, USLE, Koutsoyiannis and Tarla, RUSLE) in mountainous Mediterranean-type catchments …
Model-based soil erosion studies have increased in number, given the availability of geodata and the recent technological advances. However, their accuracy remains rather …
The accurate estimation of soil erodibility is essential for the proper simulation of erosion. The parameter, describing the soil's susceptibility to the erosive actions of precipitation and …
The main objective of this study is to apply the RUSLE to the Venetikos River catchment, located at Western Macedonia, Northern Greece, in order to estimate soil erosion and …
The study aims to evaluate the significance of land cover delineation on soil erosion assessment. To that end, RUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation) was implemented …
The study aims to evaluate the performance of nine empirical rainfall erosivity (R) factor formulas at the Venetikos River catchment, Northwestern Greece. The goal is to select the …
Rural development in forested lands and high altitude ecosystems created new regimes and disturbances that set protective function of forests as the most fundamental of all forest …
