After wildfires, land managers must assess the potential for increased flooding, erosion, and sedimentation, and the increased threat these effects may pose to people, structures, and valued resources. A Web-based Erosion Risk Management Tool (ERMiT) has been developed to predict surface erosion from postfire hillslopes, and to evaluate the potential effectiveness of various erosion mitigation ...

Degradable polymers are beginning to play an increasing role as materials for environmental and medical applications. Understanding factors that control erosion, such as bond cleavage and the dissolution and diffusion of degradation products, will be critical to the future development of these materials. Erosion kinetics, photomicroscopy, and infrared spectroscopy were used to understand the er...

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...

Dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC) are associated with soil erosion, yet there is a shortage of research concerning the relationship between soil erosion, SOC, and especially microbial biomass carbon (MBC). In this paper, we selected two typical slope landscapes including gentle and steep slopes from the Sichuan Basin, China, and used the (137)Cs technique to determine the effects of water e...

The slope length and steepness (LS) factor is one of the factors in the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) needed to estimate average annual erosion rate. The LS factor is often derived from digital elevation models (DEM). DEM errors and uncertainty could affect LS factor estimation and consequently erosion rate estimation. However, DEM uncertainties are not always accounted for, and ...

Software architectural erosion is a big recurring problem for every software project. It has caused increasing interest in how to detect, stop and reverse the architectural erosion. However, up until now, there have not been many attempts to obtain an extensive overview of the work in the field. In this report, we are using systematic review technique to classify and report the reasons for arch...

Dental erosion, and specifically its symptoms, has long been studied in Japan as an occupational dental disease. However, in recent years, few studies have investigated the development of this disease or labor hygiene management aimed at its prevention. As a result, interest in dental erosion is comparatively low, even among dental professionals. Our investigation at a lead storage battery fact...

Astract: This paper shows how recent situation of soil erosion evaluation and prediction on a regional scale based on the techniques of spatial information. The study, which was carried out in central China, identified sediment discharge, precipitation, soil composition, gully density and land use as erosion factors at the regional level. It showed that soil erosion can be assessed and predicte...
