Parameterization of the Effect of Bench Terraces on Runoff and Sediment Yield by Swat Modelling in a Small Semi-Arid Watershed in Northern Tunisia
In Tunisia, Soil and Water Conservation (SWC) interventions are among the most practicable strategies to prevent and mitigate rainwater losses through surface runoff and consequential erosion of fertile soils. In this ...
Towards an integrated monitoring framework to assess the effectiveness of land restoration interventions in Badia, and a framework to enhance the impact of land restoration.
This report was produced in the frame of the Project titled “Sustainability and Operationalization of Established Regional Agricultural Research Centers in Five Arab Countries”, funded by the Arab Fund for Economic & Social ...
Improving the date production chain in the Moroccan oases through small mechanization inputs to support the governmental development strategies
Moroccan oases as other Saharan oases are a highly artificial ecosystem that have proved to be capable
of sustaining agriculture under arid climatic conditions for centuries, though it has suffered a strong
degradation ...
Scaling Up Sustainable Land Management and Restoration of Degraded Land
With current rates of land degradation reaching
ten to twelve million ha per year, there is an
urgent need to scale up and out successful,
profitable and resource-efficient sustainable
land management practices to maintain ...
Types of soil and water conservation (SWC) and water harvesting (WH) interventions implemented in Jordan Badia
This report summarizes the work done during 2017 to elaborate a typology of the SWC and WH structures implemented in the Badia rangelands, based on both literature and remote sensing evidence, as part of Activity A6.
Datasets on SWC and restoration interventions in Jordan Badia
This research activity titled “ACTIVITY A6: DEVELOP METHODS FOR INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT OF RESTORATION INTERVENTIONS (IMPACT ON SOIL AND ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONS) AT BADIA SCALE AND AT EXPERIMENTAL SITE SCALE” was funded as part ...
Modalities for Scaling up Sustainable Land Management and Restoration of Degraded Land
To tackle inter-connected global challenges of population growth and migration, climate change, biodiversity loss, and degrading land and water resources, changes in land use and management are needed at a global scale. ...
Sustaining Moroccan Oasis Agricultural System through Small Mechanization Inputs
Saharan oases can be highly artificial ecosystems, capable of sustaining agriculture under arid climatic conditions; the traditional
system requires some degree of collective management for plants, soil and water but has ...
Summarized review of the recent rangeland restoration policies and programs conducted in Jordanian Badia
This report summarizes the work done during 2017 to review the relevant policies, programs, and interventions implemented during the recent decades in Badia, as part of Activity A6.
Experiment set-up: SOC trials in Merchouch and Guich stations, year 1
This is the first progress report of the SOC-related component of the research, on the effects of Durum Wheat genotypes on soil organic carbon and total nitrogen in the root zone.
