a r t i c l e i n f o The distribution and morphological characteristics of channels were mapped in a redwood forest at Caspar Creek, California, USA, to evaluate the extent to which recent logging has influenced channel conditions in the area. In the North Fork Caspar Creek watershed, second-cycle logging of the early 1990s appears to have triggered increased coalescence of discontinuous gulli...

Abstract Safety and maintenance of railway tracks has been very crucial, for sustainable economic development many nations. Almost the entire Indian were built over raised earth embankments. These embankments are susceptible to slope failure due numerous reasons. One major cause is seepage surface runoff during rainy (monsoon) season. Erosion by gullying regarded as most significant scar. Vario...

Continuous permafrost zones with well-developed polygonal ice-wedge networks are particularly vulnerable to climate change. Thermo-mechanical erosion can initiate the development of gullies that lead to substantial drainage of adjacent wet habitats. How vegetation responds to this particular disturbance is currently unknown but has the potential to significantly disrupt function and structure o...

Alluvial gully erosion is a likely key sediment source into many large rivers in tropical Australia. This type of gullying differs fundamentally to the generally accepted gully model from Southern Australia, in that it is found exclusively within alluvium and can propagate entirely as a result of basal sapping. The process is found to varying degrees within alluvial river types along most Gulf ...

Soil degradation induced by gully erosion represents a worldwide problem in the many arid and semi-arid countries, such as Iran. This study assessed: (1) importance of variables that control using Boruta algorithm, (2) relationship among causative gullied locations evidential belief function model (EBF), (3) development algorithms boosted regression tree (BRT) support vector machine (SVM).
