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 …

Intense erosion processes are widespread in the Mediterranean region, and include sheet
wash erosion, rilling, gullying, shallow landsliding, and the development of large and active …

Check dams have been used throughout the world for a variety of purposes including torrent
control, water supply enhancement, agricultural land development, and watershed …

The study of river‐riparian vegetation interactions is an important and intriguing research
field in geophysics. Vegetation is an active element of the ecological dynamics of a …

Large-scale sediment control efforts on the Loess Plateau of China and resulting reductions
in sediment yield have been documented. However, it remains unclear how these control …

Climate, lithology, soil and especially, intense land use/cover changes, make SE Spain very
vulnerable to runoff generation and water erosion leading to loss of nutrients and organic …

Check dams are widespread and effective soil and water conservation structures throughout
the world. This review paper presents an overview of the use of check dams for soil and …

Land degradation affects natural and cultivated socio-ecosystems worldwide. Soil erosion is
one of the main processes leading to land degradation, and the process is accelerated by …

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 …

The Anthropocene is a major new concept in the Earth sciences and this book examines the
effects on geomorphology within this period. Drawing examples from many different global …
