An extensive database of short to medium-term erosion rates as measured on erosion plots in Europe under natural rainfall was compiled from the literature. Statistical analysis confirmed the dominant influence of land use and cover on soil erosion rates. Sheet and rill erosion rates are highest on bare soil; vineyards show the second highest soil losses, followed by other arable lands (spring crops,...
During the last three decades, damage by rainfall induced accelerated erosion with associated off-site effects (flooding, sedimentation), has increased in Dutch South-Limbourg. Damage affects a hilly area with 40,000 ha of loess soils. In 1985, a plot study started to evaluate the effects of various conservation cropping systems of fodder maize on runoff, erosion and crop yield under natural and simulated...
In 1985 a plot study was started on sloping cultivated loess soils in South-Limbourg (The Netherlands) to evaluate the effects of various cropping systems of fodder maize on runoff, soil loss and crop yield under natural rainfall. To monitor degradation of soil structure including crust formation, undisturbed vertical samples (15 7 cm) for soil micromorphological analysis were taken of the top...
