Concentrated flow erodibility of loess-derived topsoils: the impact of rainfall-induced consolidation and sealing
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThis study investigates the impact of rainfall-induced soil consolidation and soil surface sealing processes over time after tillage on soil erosion during concentrated flow. The soil erodibility (Kc) and critical flow ... -
Discharge and gully erosion in a small rangeland catchment
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaValley bottom gullies are a common feature in rangelands. Although these gullies are found in the bottom of drainage lines, information about the relationship between discharge and gullying is scarce (Crouch, 1990; ... -
Does vegetation cover suppose gully erosion stabilization?
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe present research is addressed to study the evolution of vegetation cover on gully sidewalls and its influence on sediment production due to gully erosion and on gully walls’ stabilization. A sample gully system of the ... -
Effect of topography on retreat rate of different gully headcuts in Bardenas Reales area (Navarre, Spain)
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaIn Northeast Spain, gullying is a widespread phenomenon. This type of erosion is especially intense in Bardenas Reales (Navarre) where at least two major typical kinds of gully headcut are present. A first group developed ... -
Effectiveness of palm and bamboo geotextiles in reducing concentrated flow erosion
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaRills and gullies, caused by concentrated flow erosion, represent an important sediment source in many environments (Poesen et al., 2003). Studies indicate that vegetation can be very effective in controlling gully ... -
Effects of slope processes and management in gullying
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaMost erosion studies have been typically done in rill and interrill areas because the complexity of gullies and their large size have made their study very difficult. Morgan (1979) and Hudson (1985) define gullies as water ... -
Ephemeral gullies: to till or not to till?
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaWhile the perceived magnitude of ephemeral gully erosion may be masked after gullies are repaired, the action of plowing in these channels reduces topsoil thickness and crop productivity over a much wider area than the ... -
Ephemeral gully erosion research: processes and modeling
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) defines ephemeral gullies as small channels that can be filled in by normal tillage operations only to reform in the same location by subsequent runoff events. Ephemeral ... -
Ephemeral gully headcut development and migration in stratified soils
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe objectives of the current study were: (1) to quantify the effect of an erosion resistant (ER) soil layer placed at various depths within a soil profile on headcut development and migration; and (2) to assess the ... -
Erosion processes at the gully scale: observations, quantification and interpretation of field data from the Draix laboratory
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaIn the Southern French Alps, the black marls formation covers a large area and is highly susceptible to weathering and erosion. It has a badlands topography and is subject to high solid transport, bringing high sediment ... -
Estimating sediment yield from gully erosion using easily measurable morphometric characteristics in Darehshahr region, south of I.R. Iran
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaA case study was conducted in a part of Ilam Province, I.R. Iran, to establish a reliable model for estimating sediment yield from gully erosion. The attempt was satisfactory and led to an applicable model whose input could ... -

(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaAustralia’s climate and land management practises have resulted in an increased threat to land condition and water quality through sediment transported by gully erosion. The Fitzroy River catchment is located in Queensland ... -
