Response of soil hydrological processes to soil rock fragments: A global Meta-analysis
The rock fragment (RF) has been widely observed in the soil solum or on the soil surface. It regulates soil hydrological processes (SHPs) and thus...

Role of the preferential flow at rock–soil interface in the water leaking process in near-surface fissures filled with soils in the karst rock desertification area
Soil preferential flow infiltrating rapidly through the rock–soil interface is an important hydrological process in karst rocky desertification area....

Using random forest and multiple-regression models to predict changes in surface runoff and soil erosion after prescribed fire
Prescribed fire is a viable practice to reduce the wildfire risk in forests, but its application may lead to increased surface runoff and soil...

Post-Wildfire Debris Flows
Post-wildfire debris flows pose severe hazards to communities and infrastructure near and within recently burned mountainous terrain. Intense heat of... -
Does forest restoration influence soil infiltrability? A case study in the restored woodland of Sierra de Ávila (Central Spain)
Infiltration, as a major component of the hydrological cycle, plays an important role in ecosystems, river flooding, and soil erosion. Therefore,...
