Soil erosion is a serious environmental problem in Kothagiri Taluk. Many studies have been carried out to map shifting cultivation and areas susceptible to soil erosion. Mostly, estimated soil loss is taken as the basis to classify the level of soil loss susceptibility of area. The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) function is a commonly used erosion model for this purpose in Kothagi...

L’érosion des sols est un risque naturel qui exacerbé par les activités anthropiques en République démocratique du Congo. Cependant, il existe peu d’information sur la spatialisation de ce phénomène à l’échelle territoriale. Cette étude basée l’utilisation modèle USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation) et données accès libre pour cartographier zones d’érosion faire priorisation conservation dans le...

Soil erosion implications on future food security are gaining global attention because in many areas worldwide there is an imbalance between soil loss and its subsequent deposition. Soil erosion is a complex phenomenon affected by many factors such as climate, topography and land cover (in particular forest resources, natural vegetation and agriculture) while directly influencing water sediment...

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...
