Human induced soil erosion and the implications on crop yield in a small mountainous Mediterranean catchment (SW-Turkey)

Distinct Contributions of Eroding and Depositional Profiles to Land-Atmosphere CO2 Exchange in Two Contrasting Forests

“…If the eroded material is comprised of organic matter-rich topsoil, deposition of eroded soil can introduce a rich source of exogenous nutrients to depositional profiles (Liu et al, 2003;Quinton et al, 2010;Wang et al, 2014;Papanicolaou et al, 2015); even erosion of SOC from deep gullies (Nadeu et al, 2012) transports nutrients to depositional environments. This process can promote relatively high ecosystem productivity at many depositional environments (McKenney et al, 1995;Van Loo et al, 2017) and, presumably, SOC productivity rates as well. Because SOC buried in relatively low-oxygen environments can be preserved far longer than in surface environments, deposition of eroded material also may induce enhanced preservation of buried profiles at depositional settings (Berhe et al, 2008;Berhe and Kleber, 2013;Marín-Spiotta et al, 2014).…”

Holocene demographic fluctuations, climate and erosion in the Mediterranean: A meta data-analysis

“…3). The increased sedimentation rates coincided with the initial significant anthropogenic disturbance of the landscape, and sediment accumulation decreased afterwards, mainly as a result of the depletion of hillslope sediment sources (Van Loo et al, 2017). Sedimentation rates during the most prominent occupation of the area, i.e.…”

PENGUKURAN EROSI PADA LAHAN RUMPUT KOLONJONO (Brachiaria mutica) DENGAN METODE PLOT KECIL DI HUTAN WANAGAMA I

“…Pemanfaatan lahan tanpa dibarengi dengan upaya konservasi tanah dan air akan menurunkan produktivitas lahan (Ribolzil, et al, 2017). Selanjutnya tingkat erosi akan semakin meningkat (Yu, et al, 2017;Van Loo et al, 2017). Tabel 7 berisikan data pengamatan rumput pada ketiga plot yang terjadi sepanjang waktu penelitian.…”
