in recent decades, large investments have been made to introduce soil conservation methods, but most of these efforts have had limited success in achieving the goals. as a result, attempt to identify the factors deterring or promoting adoption of soil conservation practices is important. therefore, this study aimed to investigate factors affecting adoption of soil conservation practices by rain...

In any hydrologic study, the most important parameter is runoff which necessary for designing hydraulic structure, and determining risk of flood. As there a scare in availability data many sites, hydrologists have developed indirect methods to determine accelerate program watershed management conserving developing water resources management. Many are used estimate runoff; Soil conservation curv...

1988 PREFACE The intent of this publication is twofold: (1) to serve as a user guide for soil scientists and others interested in learning about the value and use of digital elevation model (DEM) data in making soil surveys and (2) to provide documentation of the Soil Landscape Analysis Project (SLAP). This publication provides a step-by-step guide on how digital slope-class maps are adjusted t...

Flooding is a problem that often found in cities, especially the rural areas of Baturaja Permai. When it rains, quantity river water exceeds its capacity or becomes too much, and there will be inundation caused by overflowing rivers. Factors natural events such as high rainfall intensity cause flooding, coupled with factors from human activities. This study aims to investigate flood characteris...

nowadays soil erosion is considered as a serious threat to human's life and his welfare. when soil erosion not properly controlled, the fertility would gradually decrease. adoption of appropriate soil conservation practices along with socio-economic factors' assessment can be used to increase farmers' awareness and acceptance of soil conservation, and to diminish soil erosion dam...

As one of the key tools for regulating human-ecosystem relations, environmental conservation policies can promote ecological rehabilitation across a variety of spatiotemporal scales. However, quantifying the ecological effects of such policies at the regional level is difficult. A case study was conducted at the regional level in the ecologically vulnerable region of the Loess Plateau, China, t...

Conservation agriculture is often presented as being ‘climate smart’ due to anticipated increases in soil moisture. The extent of enhanced water availability in farmers’ fields is, however, poorly documented. This paper presents five data sets describing soil moisture in fields of small-scale conservation and conventional farmers in the Agro-ecological Zone IIa, Zambia. The data include (1) soi...
