AgricultureAgriculture is the main cause of soil erosion in the Earth. Soil erosion is triggered by tillage, herbicide abuse, and compaction in Mediterranean orchards.
|
Forest FiresForest fires remove the plant and litter cover, increase the ash cover and induce high erosion rates. But the vegetation recovers and ash disappear. The temporal and spatial changes of the soil erosion rates after the forest fires is a key scientific issue.

Soil Erosion Control |
The highest soil erosion rates are usually found in road and railways embankments. Assessment and restoration and rehabilitation is a challenge.
|
There is a need to restore the soil properties and functions, and for this we need to find the right managements to avoid the non-sustainable soil erosion rates.
