This paper reviews Ethiopia's experience and research progress in past soil and water
conservation (SWC) efforts and suggests possible solutions for improvement. Although …

Soil erosion by water is one of the main causes of land degradation and reduced agricultural
productivity in Africa leading to an estimated annual loss in crop yield of 280 million tons. To …

In the drought-prone Upper Blue Nile River (UBNR) basin of Ethiopia, soil erosion by water
results in significant consequences that also affect downstream countries. However, there …

Land use/land cover (LULC) change and climate variability are two major factors controlling
hydrological responses. The present study analyzed the separate and combined effects of …

Understanding the effect of land use and sustainable land management (SLM) practices on
runoff and soil loss (SL) is essential for adopting suitable strategies to control soil erosion …

Land degradation by water and wind erosion is a serious problem worldwide. Despite the
significant amount of research on this topic, quantifying these processes at large-or regional …

Soil erosion by water is one of the main environmental concerns in Ethiopia. Several studies
have examined this at plot and watershed scales, but no systematic study of soil erosion …

We compiled an extensive database of erosion and runoff measurements on erosion plots
under natural rainfall in China. We used this database to analyse how soil loss by sheet and …

On the steep hill slopes of southwest Ethiopia, soil erosion may cause significant declines in
soil organic carbon (SOC) and nutrients, negatively affecting cropland productivity. Soil …

The eastern Mediterranean basin is witnessing increased storm activity impacting populous
urban coastal areas that historically were not prone to catastrophic flooding. In the fall of …
