DOI: 10.1007/s12517-017-3139-1
Abstract: Wind-erosion risk is a challenge that threatens land development in dry-land regions. Soil analysis, remote sensing, climatic, vegetal cover and topographic data were used in a geographic information system (GIS), using multi-criteria analysis (MCA) to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12517-020-05646-7
Abstract: In general, agricultural intensification and human intervention lead to the soil erosion problem. Remarkably, marginal alluvial plains of vast Indo-Gangetic plain consistently suffer a great peril of land degradation in and around the Yamuna-Chambal valley.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13595-019-0914-z
Abstract: Multi-objective forest planning methods were used to assess the trade-offs between three ecosystem services: timber production, erosion protection and biodiversity. The use of trade-off analysis helps to define proper weights for the management objectives and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.apgeog.2020.102366
Abstract: Abstract This study investigated the intersection between empirically derived and farmers perceived soil erosion risk in a medium-sized catchment on the Ugandan side of mountain Elgon. We postulated that farmers' perception of soil erosion risk… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2021.105263
Abstract: Abstract Critical soil erosion risk areas in peninsular southern Indian states were identified through integration of biophysical and productivity loss following a robust scientific procedure (weighted average). Biophysical priority as a function of difference between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.landusepol.2016.10.043
Abstract: Serious soil erosion occurred in the South Downs National Park, southern England in the years 1982–2006 and details of around 400 sites are contained in a database. In 2010 we revisited 85 of the most… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020gh000274
Abstract: Ecosystem degradation accompanied by soil erosion risk is caused by the interaction of many factors, including climate change and human activities. Therefore, before attempting the optimal form of ecological restoration, we must know the key… read more here.
