negative impacts of gully erosion in marly areas are severe due to improper landuse practices such as irrigation, tillage, overgrazing and degradation of vegetation cover. the objective of this research was to evaluate gully thresholds related to plant vegetation cover and landuse change in the agriculture (ag), fair rangeland (fr) and weak rangeland (wr) areas of ghaasr-e-shirin, kermanshah, i...

Some methodologies were compared in providing erosion maps of surface, rill and gully and erosion features, in research which took place in the Varamin sub-basin, north-east Tehran, Iran. A photomorphic unit map was produced from processed satellite images, and four other maps were prepared by the integration of different data layers, including slope, plant cover, geology, land use, rocks erodi...

surface. the development of gullies causes the loss of a great amount of soil and could be considered as one of the principal causes of geo-environmental degradation. in this research fazi model introduced for gully erosion zonation in arid and semiarid area considered to calibration and validation in kahkiloeh and boyerahmad province. therefore, the abgandi watershed were selected by considera...

abstract gully erosion is a kind of water erosion that has high priority in fars province due to sediment production and enormous damages to land, roads and infrastructures. in this study, 15 gullies were selected and their morphometric characteristics, such as catchment area, soil, cover vegetation and climate were measured. in order to determine influential factors on the sediment production ...

erosion is one of the important social-economic problems in iraniancatchments that have been posed by surface water vastness and runoff production. so, thestudy of water resources, soil erosion and effective factors is of high importance. gullyerosion also extends in many parts of iran and its study particularly in viewpoint ofsediment yield is therefore very important and should be taken into ...

The widespread hillslope- and gully-erosion in Liaoning Province of Northeast China, pose serious challenges to the local agricultural production. Hillslope- have typically been studied separately; however, there has little investigation on relationship these two types erosion. In this study, coupling from perspectives erosion intensity land use, as well slope gradient, aspect, shape, was analy...
