In the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), erodibility accounts for the influence of soil properties on soil loss during storm events in upland areas, which is represented by the soil erodibility factor (K). ...

Large areas of the Patagonian Andean Region with high potential for planting fast-growing exotic conifers, based on the volcanic nature of its soils, are affected by erosion processes. This study aimed to analyse the effects ...

Brazil has the largest cattle herd in the world with approximately 200 million head. An important feature of the Brazilian cattle industry is that most of its herd is raised on pasture, which constitutes one of the most ...

Water erosion is one of the main problems facing agriculture worldwide. It is responsible for the transport of sediments that compromise the quality and quantity of water in rivers and reservoirs, as well as for the loss ...

NW Patagonia in Argentina has high potential for planting fast-growing exotic conifers, supported by its volcanic soils. Nonetheless, many aspects related to the effects of pine plantations on soil are still unknown. We ...

Little is known about the influence of soil pedogenesis and reclamation practices on the chemical composition of soil organic matter (SOM) in eroded Oxisol. We examined the long-term influence of pedogenesis and 8 years ...
