Purpose: Sediment delivery from headwater catchments to reservoirs is a serious threat to reservoir sustainability, and is a critical issue in Mediterranean environments where water resources are scarce. In this study we assessed the consequences of two landscape management scenarios (natural vegetation recovery and scrub clearance) on soil erosion and sediment yield. The results were analyzed ...

Soil erosion will have impact in the land productivity, water resource and watershed as a whole. The loss of top soil leads to degradation for an agrarian area like Jhimruk which also known “The rice bowl Nepal”, it would be huge consequence on productivity. Therefore, is essential know spatial distribution areas susceptible assess potential plan effective mitigation measures. Revised Universal...

â increase in wastage of soil resources in watershed is a persistent challenge that with increase in population and pressure on natural sources and unstable plantation on gradient farms and soils cause production reduces on farms, and also decrease in daily ratio of farms to population can cause more pressure on lands and natural resources.lavarefin watershed placed in 60 km from bandarabass in...

soil erosion is a serious environmental problem in vazroud watershed, which is located in the centre of the mazandaran province, iran. unfortunately, vazroud watershed like most iran watersheds don’t have recorded data and erosion and sedimentation gages to research, monitor and model soil erosion at large watershed. in order to assess the soil erosion risk, soil erosion modeling at the watersh...

Soil erosion is one of the most common types land degradation. To provide useful information for proper management, quantitative soil evaluation and identifying influential factors are needed. However, rare studies have been reported on spatial modeling in connection with affective to prioritize locality type control measures. Hence, aim this study was (1) assess erosion-prone areas Talar water...

Land clearing for cropping and grazing has increased runoff sediment yield in Central Queensland. The Brigalow Catchment Study (BCS), was established to determine the effect of land on water balance, soils, productivity, consisted three catchments: brigalow forest, cropping, grazing. Factors responsible changes models predicting have not been assessed. Objectives this study are identify climati...

The Nilgiri Biosphere, being one of the critical catchments, a small agricultural watershed Udhagamandalam has been analysed to show need improve agriculture by reducing soil erosion. For this study, land use and cover classification was undertaken using Landsat images highlight changes that have occurred between 1981 2019. Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) method Geographic Informat...
