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. -
Historical gully erosion with loess areas of SE Poland – Natural conditions and human impact
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaGullies constitute one of the most characteristic elements of loess relief in SE Poland. Particularly dense net of permanent gullies – in some places more than 10 km?km-2 – appears in areas of specific conditions of ... -

(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaSoil erosion, undoubtedly, is one of the main ecological and agricultural problems in the world. Quantity of eroded lands in Ukraine achieves 10.5 millions ha. Annual losses of soil constitutes about 600 millions tons ... -
Gully erosion risk zoning: proposal of a methodology and case study
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaGullying is the most advanced, complex stage of erosion processes, with more local destructive power than other types of erosion (São Paulo, 1990). In this paper, we propose a method to generate gully erosion risk zoning ... -
Influence of soil structure, pore-water pressure, and tailwater height on headcut migration in upland concentrated flows
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe primary objective of this study was to determine the impact of soil texture, soil pore-water pressure, and tailwater height on scour hole dimensions, migration rate and sediment yield in headcuts migrating under steady ... -
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 ... -
A general sediment transport model for linear incisions
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaPrevious research has shown that the functional relationship between sediment transport and shear stress, discharge and slope is non-linear. The different datasets that support this hypothesis are however all derived from ... -
Comparison of historical evolution of gully networks on both Slovak and Moravian forelands of the white Carpathians
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe main objective of the contribution is to present the preliminary results of comparison of historical evolution of gully networks in both Slovak and Moravian forelands of the White Carpathians. This geomorphic unit ... -
Some examples of ephemeral gully erosion in an Atlantic area of NW Spain
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThis study aimed to describe types of ephemeral gullies and to determine their origin, evolution and importance as sediment sources in Galicia (Northwest Spain). Concentrated erosion was surveyed on medium textured soils, ... -
Causes of gully erosion in arid ecosystem: case study southern part of I.R. Iran
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThis research demonstrated that the I.R. region is prone to gully erosion. The study area had limited gully erosion four decades ago. With accelerating urban development during the past, two to three decades, areas of gully ... -
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 ... -
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; ... -
Morphology and controlling factors of landslide cirque gullies: a case study from the Sprogu gravas nature monument (SE Latvia)
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaHuman-induced changes of landscape and the vegetation cover have been recognized in the majority of studies focusing on gully formation as one of the most important factors triggering the development of gullies throughout ... -
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 ... -
The importance of the presence of gullies in the production of sediments in semiarid areas (Murcia, south-east of Spain)
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2007) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe study has shown how the existence of gullies remarkably increases the rates of erosion and, therefore, the volume of sediments that arrives at the dikes of hydrological correction. A consequence of this is the need to ... -
