Journal ArticleDOI
Gully erosion and environmental change: importance and research needs
TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the need for monitoring, experimental and modelling studies of gully erosion as a basis for predicting the effects of environmental change (climatic and land use changes) on gully degradation rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resistance of soils to concentrated flow erosion: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, all available data on the resistance of topsoils to concentrated flow erosion in terms of channel erodibility (Kc) and critical shear stress (τcr) has been collected together with all soil and environmental properties reported in literature to affect the soil erosion resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial evaluation of a physically-based distributed erosion model (LISEM)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used LISEM to simulate an extreme erosion event in a small agricultural catchment in the Belgium loam belt, and measured rill and gully volumes and the thickness of sediment deposits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thresholds for gully initiation and sedimentation in Mediterranean Europe
Liesbeth Vandekerckhove,Jean Poesen,D Oostwoud Wijdenes,Jeroen Nachtergaele,Costas Kosmas,Maria Roxo,T. de Figueiredo +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a negative power relationship of the form S = aAb was fitted through all datasets, and defined as the mean topographical threshold for gullying in the respective area, suggesting a dominance of overland flow and an influence of subsurfaceflow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sediment export by water from an agricultural catchment in the Loam Belt of central Belgium
TL;DR: In this article, an agricultural drainage basin of 250 ha was selected in the Belgian Loam Belt to evaluate sediment export by water and water discharge was continuously measured at the outlet of the catchment and suspended sediment samples were taken proportional with discharge during rainfall events.
