Abstract Construction associated to land development, such as roads and railroads, promote severe degradation. Cutslope sediment yield is one of the major pollutants on waters close road railroad network. To estimate impact, soil erosion (E), (SY) morphological evolution a cut in Palencia (Spain), were studied using nails, during periods 1998–1999, 1999–2000 2000–2010. Data from two sample plots analyzed by an ANOVA for repeated measures. Slope was estimated cubic polynomial regression,...
Afforestation can improve hydrological processes, such as infiltration, in basins and, therefore, reduce the impact on human populations of floods, soil erosion, landslides, droughts, and climate variation. The aim this work was to analyze how afforestation other changes land use influence infiltrability evolution soils. Infiltration rates, water repellency, physical chemical properties sandy loam soils were measured four types land: native holm oak forest, afforested 20-year-old pine...
ABSTRACT This paper presents the history of badland generated in Saldaña region, Spain; as well main responses eight decades after start restoration – terms vegetation, soil and erosive processes. The consisted intense reforestation construction more than 100 check dams numerous wattle fences. Presently, dense vegetation (87% cover) contrasts markedly with degraded landscape from early 20th century (5% cover). thickness litter natural presence some species ( Quercus pyrenaica , Paeonia...
Abstract Check dams play an important role worldwide in sediment retention, although their effectiveness is currently the subject of debate. In this study, 11 geometric models with field methodology and equations are proposed to estimate retained quickly, easily a sufficient degree approximation. The were applied sample check Saldaña badlands (Spain) accordance shape valley determine volume compare them other widely used methods. Our method gave lower volumes than topographic methods, but...
Abstract With an area of 6,200 km 2 , the Gilbués badlands region in Brazilian drylands is largest desertification site Country. It located upstream Boa Esperança Hydroelectric Power Plant and contiguous to important agricultural area. However, primary quantitative data on erosive processes are scarce or nonexistent. We analyzed on‐site (2018–2019) concerning small‐scale (hillslope micro basin) processes: inter‐rill gross erosion, vegetation coverage factor, sediment yield, delivery ratio....
La actividad agropecuaria del departamento Chocó, Pacífico norte colombiano, se ha basado en la implementación de prácticas tradicionales producción que a fecha han sido poco documentadas y diferenciadas. El objetivo esta investigación fue tipificar caracterizar los sistemas productivos agroforestales presentes tres municipios (Quibdó, Unión Panamericana Unguía). Se entrevistaron aplicaron encuestas semiestructuradas 82 productores estos información complementó con literatura disponible...
Abstract Knowing how much sediment check dams have trapped during their lifespan is essential to estimate effectiveness or the yields of basins. Methods calculate volume by play an important role in understanding these issues. Several authors proposed different methods measure retained sediment, but accuracy has, as yet, not been precisely determined and currently a subject debate. We compare most frequently used (geometric: prism, pyramid geometric; topographic: Digital Terrain Models...
Abstract Evapotranspiration (ET) plays an important role in integrated water resource planning, development and management. This process is particularly relevant semiarid regions. The aim of this study is, hence, to compare spatial temporal patterns actual ET, as well the trends two different forests, Caatinga (Brazil) Tierra de Pinares (Spain). We used surface energy balance algorithm for land (SEBAL) assess evapotranspiration (ET a ) both areas. In Brazilian forest, main vegetation, while...
The present study was designed to investigate the dynamics of rainfall patterns on production and rate decomposition litter in caatinga biome. To this end, a data series which had been recorded over 30 years (1981-2010) used; indicators taken into consideration being irregular index, humidity index consecutive wet dry days. Litter collected monthly period two (2009-2010) at 20 different locations, totalled 480 samples. Samples were from all live individuals with stem diameter ≥0.03 m height...
Abstract Our understanding of the movement and storage water in typical Caatinga plants is still limited often disregarded balance calculations. This why objective this work was to evaluate dynamic trees biome during dry, rainy transition period by gauging content levels that cause onset leaf emergence. In a preserved forest, soil stem six representative species catingueira ( Caesalpinia pyramidalis Tul.) were monitored with low‐cost capacitive sensors. Leaf moisture, area index, volume, sap...
RESUMEN:Los lagos y lagunas de alta montaña no son un rasgo típico del paisaje la Península Ibérica, sino más bien una excepción en el medio natural, por ello su estudio conservación presenta gran interés.Este trabajo surge con objeto inventariar caracterizar conjunto diecisiete complejos lagunares ubicados las provincias Palencia León (Cordillera Cantábrica Sierra Cabrera), sin ningún tipo restricción tamaño.Así mismo se describen sus cuencas, ligadas masas agua que determinarán futura...
The environment provides many necessary services for a plethora of human activities related to that are being acknowledged as our ecosystems degrade; therefore, ecosystem-based solutions becoming increasingly more important. Hydrologic restorations (HRs) apply this type ecosystem approach; there multiple examples around the Mediterranean area executed since beginning twentieth century. One good example these restoration-type can be seen in badlands Saldana (Palencia, Spain). This case has...
RESUMENEl presente trabajo establece una serie de criterios para el cálculo muros entramados madera con vegetación, popularmente conocidos como Krainer.Son obras bioingeniería empleadas en la consolidación taludes, que mezclan elementos constructivos inertes vivos y deben llevar asociado un estabilidad.La información existente sobre es muy amplia, pero no hay aplicaciones específicas esta técnica.Se propone metodología basada comprobación tensiones admisibles entre terreno los materiales...
