Water loss through surface runoff is a significant constraint for rainfed agricultural lands
across the Mediterranean region. Using straw-mulch cover (SMC) as a runoff mitigator has …

Soil erosion is a multi-scale geographical interface process with high spatiotemporal
variability. This study aimed to assess runoff and sediment dynamics under different …

Extreme rainfall is becoming more frequent and intense, which no doubt increases the risks
and uncertainty of water erosion in widely-used contour ridge systems. Ridge slope erosion …

The ecosystems within agro-pastoral transition zones exhibit inherent fragility and
heightened susceptibility to climate variability, exacerbated by profound degradation …

Abstract Changes in natural rainfall characterized by heavy precipitation and high rainfall
intensity would increase the risks and uncertainty of nutrients losses. Losses of nitrogen (N) …

Soil surface roughness (SSR) impacts runoff dynamics of surface-subsurface and the
magnitude of soil erosion, limited attention has been paid to how SSR governs runoff …

During the first decade of vegetation restoration in karst mountainous areas, mosses form a
nearly 1-cm-thick layer with a patchy distribution. The effects of moss patches on slope …

Different microrelief patterns of sloped farmland have important effects on soil erosion.
However, its hydraulic erosion control mechanism under continuous rainfall is unclear. In …

As an important indicator of ecological restoration, soil roughness changes exhibit a
synergistic evolutionary relationship with near-surface characteristics such as soil and …

As an important soil and water conservation engineering measure in mountainous and hilly
areas, the carbon pool management strategy of terraces is of great significance for …
