The enrichment of phosphorus (P) in streams and rivers can impair water quality, but
concentrations have decreased. We found little evidence that this improvement was caused …

Erosion and loss of organic carbon (OC) result in degradation of the soil surface. Rill and
interrill erosion processes on a silt loam soil were examined in laboratory rainfall and flume …

For the first time in the Basque Country, turbidity (NTU), discharge (l/s) and precipitation
(mm) have been continuously monitored in the gauging stations located at the outlet of three …

The losses in soil nutrients (nitrogen (N), available phosphorus (Pav), organic carbon (OC),
potassium (K), calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg)) in the catchment and the storage in the …

Changes from natural tree species to rapidly growing exotic species as well as
intensification of forestry operations with heavy machinery can lead to changes in the …

As part of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment in Biscay, Basque Country, we described
scenarios for Biscay through 2050 in an integrated and participatory way by downscaling the …

In intensively managed forest plantations, clear-cutting and intensive site preparation may
have negative effects on fundamental soil processes that determine the sustainability of …

The estimate of suspended sediment load in rivers is often highly problematic because of
the strong variability in suspended sediment concentrations with discharge. Previous studies …

This chapter presents a detailed and updated scientific view of the Soils of the Temperate
Humid Zone, which comprises a wide territory located in the Northwest (Galicia) and the …

The depth distribution of soil properties are governed by several interacting factors including
land use types (LUT) and agro-climate (AgC) factors. Yet, there is little information on the …
