Rainfall runoff erosivity (R) is one key climate factor that controls water erosion. Quantifying the effects of climate change–induced erosivity change is important for identifying critical regions prone to soil erosion under a changing environment. In this study we first evaluate the changes of R from 1970 to 2090 across the United States under nine climate conditions predicted by three genera...

This research has concentrated on the physical and socio-economic impacts of vegetation-based management scenarios targeting on flooding and soil erosion issues in the Ramian watersheds. The Ramian watershed with an approximate area of 24000 ha is located in Golestan, Iran. For each sub-watershed, four biological actions (activities) and 16 management scenarios have been considered. Physical im...

The biological soil crust (BSC) is a naturally occurring vegetation layer in the topsoil that composed of diverse array microscopic living organisms such as cyanobacteria, green algae, lichen, liverworts, moss, micro-fungi, and other bacteria. BSC cover well recognized for mitigating erosion caused by wind forces overland flow. By forming sheet-like microbe community, can bind loose particles, ...

This paper studies the application of soil and water conservation ecological engineering in loss control. Ecological is a comprehensive control measure, aiming at protecting improving quality resources reducing erosion through biological, physical chemical means. The purpose this study to provide scientific basis technical support for by in-depth discussion analysis method based on ecology, whi...
