In hillslopes where landslides are the main mechanism of erosion, land use and cover significantly influence sediment transfer downslope. This relation allows for assessing spatial temporal distribution flux within basin.An evaluation (dis)connectivity factors in pre-Pyrenees region Catalonia shows that Saldes Basin has experienced a significant transformation over past 30 years. There been notable 30% increase shrublands forests. change is primarily attributed to abandonment agricultural...
In the context of soil erosion modeling, coarse-grained sediments present considerable challenges, particularly concerning sediment production and quantification. This study proposes a module-based quantification approach that integrates different processes, where one main outputs is source area delimitation mobilizable sediment. The focuses on analyzing shallow landslides various scenarios transport to nearest fluvial system, by implementing newly developed “Random...
In the scope of soil erosion modeling few attempts have been made to assess coarse-grained sediments at steep slopes. The current approach results in a lack correspondence mountain watersheds because most models perform validation for different scales, topography, and land use, especially agricultural field. Available normally prioritize estimation fine sediment field while contribution course-grained is simplified or even neglected, areas that require an analysis hillslope failure...
Badlands are highly erosive landforms of dissected morphology, which can be found on soft rocks and unconsolidated sediments, with little or no vegetation, that useless for agriculture. The erosion rates these areas high, causing important environmental economic problems. For reason, detecting the main conditioning factors control badland occurrence identifying susceptible is higly to prevent soil phenomena their negative consequences.This work attempts assess susceptibility governing at a...
<p>Debris flow and related processes strongly affect the morphology of headwater catchments deliver large amounts sediments into drainage network. The Rebaixader monitoring site, which is situated in Central Pyrenees, a perfect location to analyse different slope mass-wasting quantify sediment yield this catchment. Two types data are available: first, yearly photogrammetric surveys by Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) have been performed since 2016, second, an instrumental system...
