Rainfall erosivity in Italy: a national scale spatio-temporal assessment
Soil erosion by water is a serious threat for the Mediterranean region. Raindrop impacts and consequent runoff generation are the main driving forces of this geomorphic process of soil degradation. The potential ability for rainfall to cause soil loss is expressed as rainfall erosivity, a key parameter required by most soil loss prediction models. In Italy, rainfall erosivity measurements are l...
متن کاملRainfall erosivity in Europe.
Rainfall is one the main drivers of soil erosion. The erosive force of rainfall is expressed as rainfall erosivity. Rainfall erosivity considers the rainfall amount and intensity, and is most commonly expressed as the R-factor in the USLE model and its revised version, RUSLE. At national and continental levels, the scarce availability of data obliges soil erosion modellers to estimate this fact...
متن کاملEvaluating the Spatial-Temporal Variations of Rainfall Erosivity and Erosivity Density (A Case Study: Menderjan Watershed, Isfahan Province)
Rainfall erosivity is one of the factors determining the amount of water erosion in the soil. Rainfall erosivity is determined by the total rainstorm energy and the maximum intensity in 30 minutes (I30). Since rainfall erosivity is closely related to the amount and intensity of rainfall, it is expected that the rainfall erosivity would change monthly and seasonally throughout the year. The mai...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal variability of rainfall erosivity factor for Switzerland
Rainfall erosivity, considering rainfall amount and intensity, is an important parameter for soil erosion risk assessment under future land use and climate change. Despite its importance, rainfall erosivity is usually implemented in models with a low spatial and temporal resolution. The purpose of this study is to assess the temporaland spatial distribution of rainfall erosivity in form of the ...
متن کاملMining Rainfall Spatio-Temporal Patterns in Twitter: A Temporal Approach
Social networks are a valuable source of information to support the detection and monitoring of targeted events, such as rainfall episodes. Since the emergence of Web 2.0, several studies have explored the relationship between social network messages and authoritative data in the context of disaster management. However, these studies fail to address the problem of the temporal validity of socia...
