Morphometric analysis and soil loss assessment using the USLE model in the Subansiri watershed, Lakhimpur, Assam (India) using remote sensing and GIS techniques
Soil erosion within reservoir watersheds can degrade land resources and mobilise sediment through drainage networks, making spatial identification of erosion-prone areas important for watershed management. This study assessed the magnitude and spatial distribution of soil erosion in the Gubi Dam watershed, northeastern...

Soil erosion and land degradation pose a persistent threat to semi-arid mountain catchments, where steep relief, erodible substrates, and concentrated seasonal runoff drive high sediment loss. This study prioritizes the 53 sub-watersheds of the Upper Sebou watershed (Middle Atlas, northern Morocco; 7368 km²) for soil a...

Remote sensing and GIS have become necessary to understand the watershed
activities and for the sustainable management of land and water resources.
This becomes all the more essential in areas where the rocks are hard, porosity
is low and rock formation affects groundwater and erosion. Geospatial
technologies have adva...

Flooding is one of the most destructive natural hazards globally, with its frequency and severity amplified by climate change, land use alterations, and geomorphic characteristics of watersheds. This study assessed flood vulnerability in Hong Local Government Area (LGA), Adamawa State, Nigeria, through morphometric and...

In arid and semi-arid areas, soil erosion is a significant environmental issue, as it causes land degradation, transportation of sediments, and loss of reservoir storage capacity. The present study aimed to estimate the spatial distribution of soil erosion in the Adhaim Dam watershed in Iraq by applying the Revised U...

Site-specific planning of water harvesting and soil and water conservation (SWC) measures is important for improving water availability and watershed resilience in semi-arid regions. This study aimed to identify and prioritise suitable locations for SWC structures in the 43 km² Maliwadgaon watershed of Chhatrapati Samb...
