In the Mediterranean region the intensities and amounts of soil loss and runoff on sloping land are governed by rainfall pattern and vegetation cover. Over a two-year period (1998–1999), six wild… Expand
Nutrient Losses by Runoff and Sediment from the Taluses of Orchard Terraces
The nutrient fluxes of nitrate, ammonium, phosphorus and potassium in runoff and sediments were evaluated over a two-year period (1999–2000) on the taluses of terraces, in a zone of intense… Expand

ABSTRACT This work examines the long-term effects of deficit-irrigation (DI) practices in almond crop (Prunus dulcis Mill.) in agronomical and physiological terms. The trial was conducted during… Expand
Soil-erosion and runoff prevention by plant covers. A review
Soil erosion is a critical environmental problem throughout the world’s terrestrial ecosystems. Erosion inflicts multiple, serious damages in managed ecosystems such as crops, pastures, or forests as… Expand

A continuous monitoring of spatial and temporal variability of soil water content was studied under two soil management systems: direct drilling (DD) and conventional tillage (CT), during four… Expand
High reduction of erosion and nutrient losses by decreasing harvest intensity of lavender grown on slopes
- Carmen Rocío Rodríguez Pleguezuelo, V. H. Durán Zuazo, A. Martínez Raya, J. R. Francia Martínez, Belén Cárceles Rodríguez
- 2009
In Mediterranean countries, where rainfall is scarce and irregular, intensive agriculture promotes erosion and nutrient losses from soil, ending eventually in contamination of water bodies. Wild… Expand
