The topographic LS-factor is one of the most difficult factors of the Revised Universal Soil
Loss Equation (RUSLE) to define in a landscape with varying topography. For the …

Connectivity has been embraced by the geosciences community as a useful concept to
understand and describe hydrological functioning and sediment movement through …

Connectivity has become an increasingly used concept in hydrological and sediment
research. In order to quantify it, various indices have been proposed since the start of the …

We evaluated the performance of a new, simple test to evaluate soil structural stability. The
QuantiSlakeTest (QST) consists in a quantitative approach of the slake test, a dynamic …

Over the last decades, the off-site damages caused by muddy floods have been of growing
concern throughout much of Western Europe, and particularly in Wallonia (Belgium). A …

Intensive agricultural practices on sensitive soils induce high erosion rates in central
Belgium. Expert‐rules models quantify runoff and erosion at catchment scale, avoiding over …

In 1930, dust storms emerged in the US due to intensive tillage, low soil cover, and
overgrazing (Joel 1937; Hobbs 2007; Baveye et al. 2011). This phenomenon, known as the …

Given the high inter-annual variability in soil erosion, representative measurements are best
carried out over time scales of a few decades. In this study, a novel approach was tested that …

The redistribution of water and sediments has a significant impact on environmental systems
and on populations (Boardman et al., 2003; Cerdan et al., 2002; Evrard et al., 2007; …

We evaluated the performance of a new, simple test to evaluate soil structural stability. The
