Possibilities of using silicate rock powder: an overview
Claudete Gindri Ramos,Luis Morales-Aranibar,James C. Hower,Erika Blanco,Marcos L.S. Oliveira,Suzi Huff Theodoro +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results of international research on the use of crushed rocks (remineralizers) to increase soil fertility levels and which contributed to increase agricultural productivity, the recovery of degraded areas, the decontamination of water, and the carbon sequestration in some countries.

Anthropogenic sediment retention: major global impact from registered river impoundments
Charles J. Vörösmarty,Michel Meybeck,Balázs M. Fekete,Keshav P. Sharma,P. A. Green,James P. M. Syvitski +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed and applied a framework for estimating the potential global-scale impact of reservoir construction on riverine sediment transport to the ocean using a digitized river network at 30′ (latitude×longitude) spatial resolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil degradation by erosion
TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of soil erosion on crop yield, productivity, and soil quality is investigated, and it is shown that erosion-induced losses on crop yields are scale-dependent because of the compensatory beneficial effects on yields from depositional sites, and technology dependent because of masking effects of input such as fertilizers and irrigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human impact on land : ocean sediment transfer by the world's rivers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a quantitative assessment of the human impact on global land-ocean sediment fluxes and the net effect of increasing and decreasing fluxes in response to human impact.

TL;DR: A Dam Environmental Vulnerability Index is introduced to quantify the current and potential impacts of dams in the Amazon basin and suggest institutional innovations to assess and avoid the likely impoverishment of Amazon rivers.

Sediment flux and the Anthropocene
TL;DR: In this paper, data and computer simulations are reviewed to better define the timing and magnitude of human influence on sediment flux, and the Anthropocene epoch is defined, which is the transition between the Pleistocene and the Holocene.
