ESTIMATING THE IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON SOIL EROSION IN MEDITERRANEAN WATERSHEDS

Climate change could impact soil erosion in Mediterranean regions, through both higher climatic aridity - leading to less vegetation cover - and higher winter rainfall intensity. This could have the effect of increasing soil degradation and accelarating ongoing desertification processes. Project ERL...
