Modelling of Hydrological Processes in the Narew Catchment

Edited by Dorota Świątek, Tomasz Okruszko ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
Since climate and land use strongly affect the runoff pattern and intensity of solute export, it is likely that some observations and conclusions formulated on the basis of investigations carried out in forested catchment may not be fully adequate to describe controls on solute export from agricultural watersheds. The primary objective of the present research is to better understand the flow paths ... Read more

Rangeland Desertification

Edited by Olafur Arnalds, Steve Archer ...

Series Book 19 - Advances in Vegetation Science
Desertification has occurred worldwide. The biophysical and socio-economic complexity of this phenomenon has challenged our ability to categorize, inventory, monitor and repair the condition of degraded lands. One of the most important distinctions to be made in relation to land degradation is between cultivated land used for annual crop production and `rangelands'. Grazing by free-roaming ... Read more
