Important runoff reductions have been reported in mid-latitude, Mediterranean-like climate catchments of the Southern Hemisphere (SH), in particular in the southwest of Western Australia (SWA) and in central Chile (CC). ...

Urbanization affects runoff processes and sediment transport, but the magnitude of the impacts remains poorly understood. Different spatial patterns of pervious and impervious surfaces influence flow and sediment connectivity ...

Tropical mountain regions are affected by rapid land use/-cover change, which may threaten their (eco-) hydrological functions. Although there is a growing interest in evaluating the effect of land use/-cover change on ...

The objective was to analyse the asexual spread of Tephrocactus aoracanthus (Cactaceae) related to run-off triggered by torrential summer rains in a hyper-arid desert. Through a manipulative essay, 30 joints (asexual ...

In a context of water scarcity in Peruvian Pacific catchments as a crucial issue for Peru, added to the paucity of data availability, we propose a methodology that provides new perspectives for freshwater availability ...

The Programa para el Manejo del Agua y del Suelo (PROMAS) assists the local farming community in introducing new types of locally available irrigation equipment that are both inexpensive and water efficient. Field experiments ...

This study was conducted to evaluate the overall performance of the Precision Agricultural-Landscape Modeling System (PALMS) for calculating runoff and soil loss under cropped conditions. The PALMS model uses a lognormal ...
