Over the last century extraordinary efforts have been devoted to determining soil erosion
rates (in units of mass per area and time) under a large range of climatic conditions and land …

Increasing anthropogenic pressures coupled with climate change impacts on natural
resources have promoted a quest for innovative tracing techniques for understanding soil …

Northeast China is one of the three largest black soil regions on Earth; however, although
the black soil of the region is undergoing severe erosion, the dominant erosional agent …

Soil erosion is a threat to food security, especially in regions where the area of arable land is
shrinking dramatically because of soil degradation. Research on soil erosion expanded …

Abstract Information on the main sources supplying deleterious sediment loads to river
systems is needed to improve our understanding of soil erosion processes to better target …

Soils underpin our existence through food production and represent the largest terrestrial
carbon store. Understanding soil state-and-change in response to climate and land use …

Accelerated soil erosion can result in substantial declines in soil fertility and has devastating
environmental impacts. Consequently, understanding if rates of soil erosion are acceptable …

Global nuclear weapon testing and the Chernobyl accident have released large amounts of
radionuclides into the environment. However, to date, the spatial patterns of these fallout …

Purpose Natural rates of soil production or a target soil thickness that allows unrestricted
land use can serve as a basis for defining tolerable soil erosion rates. Guidelines for …

Anthropogenic radionuclides have been distributed globally due to nuclear weapons testing,
nuclear accidents, nuclear weapons fabrication, and nuclear fuel reprocessing. While the …
