Flood frequency analysis can be made by using two types of flood peak series, i.e. the annual maximum (AM) and peaks-over-threshold (POT) series. This study presents a comparison results both methods for data from Litija 1 gauging station on Sava River in Slovenia. Six commonly used distribution functions three different parameter estimation techniques were considered AM analyses. The showed better performance method L-moments (ML) when compared with conventional moments likelihood...
The erosive force of rainfall (rainfall erosivity) is a major driver soil, nutrient losses worldwide and an important input for soil erosion assessments models. Here, we present comprehensive set future erosivity projections at 30 arc-second (∼1 km2) spatial scale using 19 downscaled General Circulation Models (GCMs) simulating three Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) the periods 2041–2060 2061–2080. were obtained based on Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) approach relating depth...
Soil erosion can present a major threat to agriculture due loss of soil, nutrients, and organic carbon. Therefore, soil modelling is one the steps used plan suitable protection measures detect hotspots. A bibliometric analysis this topic reveal research patterns characteristics that help identify needed enhance conducted in field. detailed analysis, including investigation collaboration networks citation patterns, should be conducted. The updated version Global Applications Erosion Modelling...
As an alternative to the commonly used univariate flood frequency analysis, copula analysis can be used. In this study, 58 events at Litija gauging station on Sava River in Slovenia were analysed, selected based annual maximum discharge values. Corresponding hydrograph volumes and durations considered. Different bivariate copulas from three families applied compared using different statistical, graphical upper tail dependence tests. The parameters of estimated method moments with inversion...
Abstract Floodplains include unique environments shaped over a long time horizon along rivers and smaller streams formed by alluvial sediments. As floodplains are flat, often with highly fertile well‐accessible land, they have become the intrinsic focus of human society—while providing variety goods ecosystem services. Intensive land use is degrading their natural values significantly reducing functions A significant part these key services related ability to retain water nutrients, which...
Heavy rainstorms play a central role in the water-driving soil erosion processes. An in-depth knowledge about temporal and spatial erosivity of rainfall events is required to gain better understanding processes optimize protection measures efficiency. In this study, spatiotemporal distribution more than 300,000 erosive measured at 1181 locations, part Rainfall Erosivity Database European Scale (REDES) database, studied shed some new light on Europe. are statistically investigated through...
Abstract. Despite recent developments in modeling global soil erosion by water, to date, no substantial progress has been made towards more dynamic inter- and intra-annual assessments. In this regard, the main challenge is still represented limited availability of high temporal resolution rainfall data needed estimate erosivity. As will most likely not increase future decades since monitoring networks have declining 1980s, suitability alternative approaches erosivity using satellite-based...
Here, we present and release the Global Rainfall Erosivity Database (GloREDa), a multi-source platform containing rainfall erosivity values for almost 4000 stations globally. The database was compiled through global collaboration between network of researchers, meteorological services environmental organisations from 65 countries. GloREDa is first open access (R-factor) based on hourly sub-hourly records at scale. This now stored accessible download in long-term European Soil Data Centre...
Soil erosion is expected to increase in the future due climate change. models are useful tools that can be used by decision makers and other stakeholders deal with soil problems or implementation of protection measures. Most modelling applications using Universal Loss Equation (USLE)-type models. In this study, we evaluate applicability Erosion Potential Model (EPM) its modified version (mEPM) for estimation gross net rates at a global scale. The sensitivity analysis shows model results have...
Soil erosion is both a major driver and consequence of land degradation with significant on-site off-site costs which are critical to understand quantify. One cost soil originates from the sediments delivered aquatic systems (e.g., rivers, lakes, seas), may generate broad array environmental economic impacts. As part EU Observatory (EUSO) working group on erosion, we provide comprehensive assessment existing sediment removal European Union (EU) catchments due water erosion. These...
The new scientific decade (2023-2032) of the International Association Hydrological Sciences (IAHS) aims at searching for sustainable solutions to undesired water conditions - may it be too little, much or polluted. Many current issues originate from global change, while problems must embrace local understanding and context. will explore crises by actionable knowledge within three themes: interactions, innovative cross-cutting methods. We capitalise on previous IAHS Scientific Decades...
Debris flows are among the natural hazards that can occur in mountainous areas and endanger people’s lives cause large economic damage. flow modelling is needed multiple applications such as design of protection measures or preparation debris risk maps. Many models available be used for modelling. The Rapid Mass Movement Simulation (RAMMS) model with its module, (i.e. RAMMS-DF) one most commonly ones. This review provides a comprehensive overview past an alpine environment their main...
