Factors Controlling Gully Erosion Development in Toroud Basin – Iran

Gully Erosion after Wildfire

Predicting runoff and erosion from watersheds burned by wildfires requires an understanding of the spatial structure of both hillslope and channel drainage networks. We investigate the small-scale and large-scale structures of drainage networks using field studies and computer analysis of 30-m digital elevation model. Topologic variables were derived from a composite 30-m DEM, which included 14...

The Gully Erosion Effect On the Environment

The paper contains data about the destructive effects of gully erosion on the environment. It provides general information about the gully erosion in several countries around the world including Romania and is considered a case study for a river basin located in the Semenic Mountains (Bârzava drainage area). The case study is based on the following assumptions: the presence of different types o...

Performance Evaluation of GARP Model in Forecasting the Probability of Gully Erosion Occurrence in Abgendi Basin, Kohgiluye & Boyerahmad Province

The present study has evaluated the efficiency of GARP model in forecasting the probability of gully erosion occurrence in Abgendi basin, Kohgiluye & Boyerahmad province. After field visits, 81 gullies were recorded by GPS and surveying camera, then the map of gully erosion distribution was prepared in ArcGIS environment. Variables of elevation, slope, slope direction, distance to road, distanc...

Gully Erosion in Southeastern Nigeria: Role of Soil Properties and Environmental Factors

Assessment of Artificial Neural Network Models and Maximum Entropy in Zoning of Gully Erosion Sensitivity of Golestan Dam Basin

Zoning of gully erosion susceptibility and determining the factors controlling gully erosion is very important and vital. The aim of this study was to investigate the spatial distribution of gully erosion using two models of ANN and MaxEnt and to determine the factors affecting this type of erosion in Golestan Dam basin. Therefore, 14 factors in the form of three divisions, including topographi...
