Fire is a long-established ecological factor that has shaped the life history, hydrogeomorphological processes, soil formation and landforms of Mediterranean environments. Soil infiltration is one of the properties affected by fire as a consequence of litter and vegetation removal, and heating of and changes to the biological, chemical and physical soil properties. In this context, ash can play an...
Small-scale portable rainfall simulators are an essential research tool for investigating the process dynamics of soil erosion and surface hydrology. There is no standardisation of rainfall simulation and such rainfall simulators differ in design, rainfall intensities, rain spectra and research questions, which impede drawing a meaningful comparison between results. Nevertheless, these data become...
Although post-fire soil erosion has been studied, little attention has been paid to changes in soil surface cover following fires, despite this being a key factor in understanding the water and sediment yield. This study, at Peñaflor (Spain), investigated the effect of fire on soil erosion using data from soil erosion plots and high spatial resolution photography (HSRP). Measurements were made from...
