Spatial and Temporal impacts of stone bunds on soil physical properties: a case study in the Northern Ethiopian Highlands
Central issue of rain fed agriculture systems in the Ethiopian highlands is to store rain
water in the soil during the rainy season. The aim is to maximize plant available water and
to reduce surface runoff and soil ...
Monitoring and simulation of soil erosion in the Ethiopian Highlands on a plot scale
Soil erosion is the main driving force for global land degradation. Soil erosion measurements
are an important tool to assess soil loss under site-specific conditions and evaluate the impact
of changes in land use on its ...
Investigation of the impact of stone bunds on erosion and deposition processes combining conventional and tracer methodology in the Gumara-Maksegnit watershed, northern highlands of Ethiopia
Different soil and water conservation methods intend to prevent ongoing land degradation,
which is triggered by rainfall driven soil erosion in the Ethiopian agricultural lands. A
commonly used technique is the construction ...
