Debris-flow erosion patterns were investigated for two adjacent catchments, Molinara and Val del Lago creeks (Eastern Alps, Trento Province, Italy), where debris flows triggered by an intense storm in the summer of 2010. Both basins have been inactive over last centuries. The activated channel bank under stable bed conditions before event. erosive process was analysed combining a field campaign...

introduction soil losses and erosion is one of the main causes of fertility decreasing, sedimentation in river cannels and irrigation canals, decreasing of storage capacity in dams, increasing of floods frequency, environmental pollution and it prevents from stable development. more than 70% of iran land is covered with arid and semi-arid areas. soil erosion as one of the main causes of soil de...

The risk of potential water erosion is computed on a raster cell basis using elevation and soil data which are expressed by two factors soil erodibility and slope steepness. The SIte COmparative Method (SICOM) is used to evaluate the heterogeneity of these factors inside the borders of field blocks. With the help of this approved method a set of indicators are provided to support the evaluation...

soil conservation and control of erosion is a basic problem in all countries. the goal of this research is to estimate erosion and sediment yield in ekbatan dam drainage basin by erosion potential method (epm), using geographic information system (gis). the basin is located in hamedan province, west of iran, in a cold and semi- arid region, with an average annual rainfall of 334mm. the study ar...

Wind erosion is a complex process influenced by different factors. Most of these factors are stable over time, but land use/cover and land management practices are changing gradually. Therefore, this research investigates the impact of changing land use/cover and land management on wind erosion potential in southern Iran. We used remote sensing data (Landsat ETM+ and Landsat 8 imagery of 2004 a...

statement of problem: one of the factors in dental erosion is consumption of acidic soft drinks. although the effects of various additives to acidic soft drinks for the prevention of tooth erosion have been assessed, little data have been published on the possibility of preventing the erosion through soft drinks containing calcium-carbonate nanoparticles.  objectives: to examine the erosive fac...
