Abstract:Widespread shallow landslides typically result in the loss of productive soils and grasslands. Deposits of landslide tails have received much attention, while the severity of rill erosion on the landslide scar is generally neglected or underestimated. Thirty‐five rainfall‐induced shallow landslides were selected on Lishi (finer texture) and Malan loess (coarser texture) on the hilly and gully Loess Plateau, China. The rill erosion intensity and rill morphological parameters of these landslide scars were measur… Show more
