Soil erosion is a key factor in Mediterranean environments, and is not only closely related to
geoecological factors (lithology, topography, and climatology) but also to land-use and plant …

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 …

Climate change and disproportionate anthropogenic interventions, such as the excess of
phytopharmaceutical products and continuous soil tillage, are jeopardizing viticulture by …

Global carbon dioxide (CO2) evasion from inland waters (rivers, lakes, and reservoirs) and
carbon (C) export from land to oceans constitute critical terms in the global C budget …

Nutrient transport in surface runoff associated with sediment constitutes an important nutrient
loss in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia, but little information is available on this aspect. This paper …

The effects of soil and water conservation techniques (SWCTs) on annual runoff (Ra), runoff
coefficients (RCa) and annual soil loss (SLa) at the plot scale have been extensively tested …

The soils of Mediterranean vineyards are usually managed with continuous tillage, resulting
in bare soil, low infiltration and high soil erosion rates. Soil nutrients, such as nitrogen, could …

Soil losses were calculated in a rural watershed where environmental land use conflicts
developed in the course of a progressive invasion of forest and pasture/forest lands by …

This study examined the structure and trends of climate parameters important to winegrape
production from 1952 to 2006 in the Alt Penedès, Priorat, and Segrià regions of NE Spain …

An approach to derive relationships for defining land degradation and desertification risk
and developing appropriate tools for assessing the effectiveness of the various land …
