This article reviews the scientific literature on trail erosion and the magnitude of the erosive
processes that occur on mountain trails due to recreational activities, mainly due to hiking …

Research about soil hydrology after a wildfire has widely investigated the impacts of many
postfire management strategies on ecosystems with different characteristics. However …

Forest fires are a huge ecological hazard, and smoke is an early characteristic of forest fires.
Smoke is present only in a tiny region in images that are captured in the early stages of …

Forest land affected by deforestation yields high soil and water losses. Suitable
management practices need to be found that can reduce these losses and achieve …

Shrubland is a Mediterranean biome characterized by densely growing evergreen shrubs
adapted to fire events. To date, scientific research has focused on the impact of vegetation …

Our study was conducted in the suburban forest of Thessaloniki (Seich Sou), which
constitutes one of the most significant suburban forests of Greece and is located northeast of …

Despite ample literature, the influence of the individual soil properties and covers on the
hydrological response of burned soils of forests has not clearly identified. A clear …

Prescribed burning is increasingly used to reduce the wildfire risk, and the need to limit
runoff and erosion after the fire suggests treating burned soils with mulching. To this aim …

Prescribed fire is commonly used to reduce the wildfire risk in Mediterranean forests, but the
soil's hydrological response after fire is contrasting in literature experiences. The mulch …

The hydrological response of forest soil in the Mediterranean environment is characterised
by high runoff and erosion rates, mainly due to low infiltration and high repellency of soils …
