Photogrammetrical and field measurement of gullies with contrasting morphology
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaDespite a wealth of studies on monitoring different types of gullies by using remote-sensing technique such as photogrammetry, relatively few efforts have been made to test their accuracy. Therefore the question arises ... -

The ... -
Progress in gully erosion research: IV International Symposium on Gully Erosion
The classic forms of water erosion of the soil comprise sheet, rill, and gully erosion. According to the concept most generalized, in sheet erosion, thin layers of material are uniformly removed from the soil surface due ... -

The period of the ... -
Proposed methodology to quantify ephemeral gully erosion
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe overall objective of the proposed research is to identify and quantify landscape attributes and hydrologic conditions that can be used to assess hillslope seepage and ephemeral gully erosion. We propose to use three ... -
Recent developments in gully erosion research and their implications for controlling soil loss and sediment yield
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaSoil erosion by water causes significant soil degradation worldwide. Most erosion process research and erosion control has focussed on sheet and rill erosion. Relatively little research has dealt with (ephemeral) gully ... -
Regional assessment of gully systems in a hilly olive-orchard dominated landscape
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaOlive orchards dominate the land use at the hills of Afrin area, and olive oil represents the most important cash income source for rural communities in this area. However, olive yields in many orchards have been decreasing ... -
Relation between the location of check dams and adjacent vegetation cover in ephemeral gullies (Southeast Spain)
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaIn general, the work carried out on vegetation in the Mediterranean catchments is focused more on the hillside vegetation cover than the riparian. Apart from occasional contributions by Alcaraz et al. (1997), Salinas et ... -
The role of preferential flow through soil-pipes in ephemeral gully erosion
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe objective of this study was to quantify the hydrologic conditions under which discontinuous soil-pipes reestablish ephemeral gullies and continuous soil-pipes initiate ephemeral gullies. -
Runoff and sediment supply from small gullied and ungullied basins in a semi-arid grazed environment
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe aim of the present study is to determine links between rainfall, runoff, gully erosion and sediments. The extent of sediment yield (suspended sediment and bedload) and runoff response from gullied and ungullied basins ... -
Scouring-sedimentation balance for gully reaches affected by check dams in Mediterranean environments
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaMany of the geomorphological impacts caused by check dams are usually fairly common in torrential channels (bed agradation upstream into the sedimentary wedges, deepening and narrowing of the bankfull channel downstream, ... -
Seepage erosion impacts on edge-of-field gully erosion
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaConcentrated flow is generally considered the controlling mechanism for gully erosion whereas subsurface flow is often overlooked. The two mechanisms of subsurface flow attributed to gully erosion are seepage flow and ... -
Seepage flow in aquifers with open and closed boundaries
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaAt previous gully erosion conferences, the effect of surface seal development on gully formation and growth was analyzed (Prasad and Römkens, 2003) and the effect of hydrological conditions on gully growth was discussed (Römkens ... -
Sidewall erosion control strategies in gullies of the Penedès – Anoia vineyard region (NE Spain)
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe objective of this work is to formulate different sidewall erosion control strategies to reduce retreat and sediment production rates in the gullies of the Penedès-Anoia (NE Spain) region. -
