Modeling and Upscaling Plot-Scale Soil Erosion under Mediterranean Climate Variability
Soil erosion is an issue in the Mediterranean slopes. Erosion plots are useful to quantify erosion rates, but data are difficult to scale up to a slope level. Moreover, short observational frameworks are generally established, making it difficult to represent multi-year fluctuations. This paper deals with the potential of parsimonious modelling to upscale plot erosion (~23 m2) at Monte Pino Met...
متن کاملErosion Modelling in a Mediterranean Subcatchment under Climate Change Scenarios Using Pan-european Soil Erosion Risk Assessment (pesera)
The Mediterranean region is particularly prone to erosion. This is because it is subject to long dry periods followed by heavy bursts of erosive rainfall, falling on steep slopes with fragile soils, resulting in considerable amounts of erosion. In parts of the Mediterranean region, erosion has reached a stage of irreversibility and in some places erosion has practically ceased because there is ...
متن کاملArtificial neural networks of soil erosion and runoff prediction at the plot scale
Neural networks may provide a user-friendly alternative or supplement to complex physically based models for soil erosion prediction for some study areas. The purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of using neural networks to quantitatively predict soil loss from natural runoff plots. Data from 2879 erosion events from eight locations in the United States were used. Neural n...
متن کاملPredicting Soil Erosion With RUSLE in Mediterranean
Accurate assessment of soil loss is essential for sustainable agricultural production, 11 management and conservation planning, especially in productive rain-fed agro-ecosystems 12 and protected areas. The European Union considers soil as a non-renewable resource and 13 identifies that soil degradation has strong impacts on soil and water resources. In this work the 14 Revised Universal Soil Lo...
