As a network of researchers we release an open-access database (EUSEDcollab) water discharge and suspended sediment yield time series records collected in small to medium sized catchments Europe. EUSEDcollab is compiled overcome the scarcity data at relevant spatial scales for studies on runoff, soil loss by erosion delivery. Multi-source measurement from numerous institutions were harmonised into common metadata structure. Data reuse facilitated through accompanying descriptors providing...
ABSTRACT Human impact in the form of reservoir construction and river regulation downstream reservoirs, is causing irreversible alterations to hillslope channel connectivity catchments. This disruption dynamic equilibrium attributed sediment accumulation upstream reservoir's dam, limited outflow from reservoir, increased downcutting dam. Consequently, these necessitate further human interference natural environmental processes through various engineering structures designed reduce intensity...
The paper presents activity of contemporary geomorphic processes in the Polish Carpathians, taking into account human impact on relief transformation past several centuries.Landsliding flysch Carpathians is a principal process slope transformation, posing most serious threat to man, both mountains and foothills.On other hand, unsuitable housing slopes initiates mass movements, frequently with catastrophic consequences.Land use changes, particular deforestation, have over 200 years fostered...
Abstract This paper examines the influence of plant cover and land use on slope–channel decoupling in Stara Rzeka Stream catchment (22·4 km 2 ) its subcatchment Dworski Potok (0·3 ). The is situated marginal part Carpathian Foothills characterized by a relief low medium hills. used for agriculture but unlike other foothill catchments, it has relatively extensive unfragmented area forests (41·3 per cent). Grasslands pastures (13·8 cent) are mainly along broad flat valley floor. In cultivated...
Abstract This paper analyses the linkage between slope wash and sediment solute export from Stara Rzeka foothill catchment. Transport of on slopes its supply to stream channel vary in time depend morphology agricultural use area. Three thresholds important for morphodynamics a catchment have been established as well role valley bottoms suspended matter channels. When first threshold is exceeded, occasional transport material particular initiated. second local erosion triggered slope. third...
Human influence in the form of hydraulic engineering causes disruption to unconfined channel transport catchments. Hydrotechnical construction includes, among others: weirs, dams, retention reservoirs, river bank supports, bridges, etc. Each these structures disruptions flow trailed and suspended sediments originating from denudation catchment. It is widely known that dynamic balance bed disturbed by sediment accumulation upstream reservoir's dam, limited outflow reservoir, increased...
The main aim of the paper is to assess influence soil erosion by water in transformation agricultural slopes edge Wiśnicz Foothills. Low hills are typical morphology area. Results presented come from measurements 2007–2009. Soil took place during short periods and was caused events high magnitude low frequency which particles transported slope channel, but its supply only local episodic. In foothill area channel weakly linked.
[es] Aplicación del Cs-137 y de métodos trampeo suelo para estudiar procesos ladera en el piedemonte los Cárpatos. Se han delimitado las áreas afectadas por erosión sedimentación un perfil ladera, representativo empleado dos métodos: Cesio-137 trampas sedimentos. ha demostrado que la laderas utilizadas pastos es generalmente pequeña, apareciendo degradaciones más intensas a media ladera. Cuando estaba cultivada, debían ser intensos, como lo evidencia alto contenido depósitos fondo valle. El...
The construction of reservoirs and associated river regulation, on the one hand, positively affects human quality life related economic considerations (i.e. drinking water reservoirs, storage for farmland irrigation purposes, flood prevention measures), but other hand constitutes a major form interference in environment by generating irreversible changes its functioning. One key impact reservoir is severance natural connectivity channel upstream dam. This leads to disruption dynamic...
