Geographical information systems (GIS)-based soil erosion risk assessment models continue to play an important role in soil conservation planning. In the present study, soil erosion risk of Tange Bostanak watershed was determined within GIS-based Coordination of Information on the Environment (CORINE) soil erosion risk assessment method. The initially soil texture, soil depth and surface stonin...

a major concern in the last few years has been the fact that the cultural centers are keeping distance with what they have been established for and instead of reproducing the hegemony, they have turned into a place for resistance and reproduction of resistance against hegemony. because the cultural centers, as urban public spaces in the last two decades, have been the subject of ideological dis...

Soil erosion and sediment yield from watersheds confine sustainable use of land resources and is supposed as one of the most critical environmental issues. Prediction of storm wise soil erosion and sediment yield is very important, especially in arid and semiarid regions due to small number of events and high intensity of rainfall. Evaluation of soil erosion by existing models is needed as an i...

Introduction: Soil erosion is the most important factor in damaging and decreasing the productivity of agricultural soils. Moreover, as the transfer of sediments rich in nutrients through the soil leads to soil erosion and in turn to the decrease in the dams’ reservoirs’ storage capacity, bringing about adverse economic and eco-environmental consequences such as damage to land resources and dec...

  The purpose of current study is to investigate the effects of some of environmental factors on erosion value, to find the most important governing factors and the relation between erosion of working units and environmental factors (soil characteristics, slope, aspect, elevation, lithology, geomorphology faces and vegetation cover percentage). Working units map was prepared using geomorphology...
