DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2017.03.002
Abstract: Abstract Previous experimental investigations showed that a large proportion of total plot soil erosion over a long time period is generally due to relatively few, large storms. Consequently, erosion models able to accurately predict the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2020.104557
Abstract: Abstract In the UK, conventional asparagus cultivation practices on sloping land, erodible soils and increased frequency of extreme rainfall events combine to promote runoff generation and soil loss, particularly from interrows. This instrumented field study… read more here.
