Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to estimate quick and low-cost processes for surface runoff potential on the basis of natural environmental attributes. Design/methodology/approach - An approach based on the natural ...

With the growing demand for forestry, especially eucalyptus and pine plantations for the production of wood, pulp and resins, concerns have increased about the impacts on the conservation of water resources, especially ...

This work aimed to evaluate and compare the efficiency of five different coatings used in urban areas: lawn soil, bare soil, waterproof concrete lining, hollow concrete blocks and solid concrete blocks used to reduce ...

The runoff generation over fields with no-tillage agriculture management remains being a problem with environment, social and economic impacts. The purpose of this research was evaluate the capacity of a physic based and ...
