Araya, TesfayNyssen, JanGovaerts, BramDeckers, JozefSommer, RolfBauer, HansGebrehiwot, KindeyaCornelis, Wim M.[Seven years resource-conserving agriculture effect on soil quality and crop productivity in the Ethiopian drylands]Seven years resource-conserving agriculture effect on soil quality and crop productivity in the Ethiopian drylands

Transhumance, the seasonal movement of herds occurring between two points and following precise routes repeated each year, is practiced on a broad scale in the open field areas of Tigray (North Ethiopia). This article presents a characterization of the practice, factors that explain its magnitude...


Nyssen, JanDescheemaeker, KatrienZenebe, A.Poesen, J.Deckers, J.Haile, M.[Transhumance in the Tigray Highlands (Ethiopia)]Transhumance in the Tigray Highlands (Ethiopia)

Daily runoff from 27 plots (5 m ? 2 m) recorded during two rainy seasons in the Tigray highlands (Ethiopia) were analysed together with daily rainfall to calculate runoff curve numbers for hillslopes covered by semi-natural vegetation in varying stages of vegetation restoration. Curve number mode...


Descheemaeker, KatrienPoesen, J.Borselli, L.Nyssen, JanRaes, DirkHaile, M.Muys, B.Deckers, J.[Runoff curve numbers for steep hillslopes with natural vegetation in semi-arid tropical highlands, northern Ethiopia]Runoff curve numbers for steep hillslopes with natural vegetation in semi-arid tropical highlands, northern Ethiopia

In the highlands of northern Ethiopia, degraded hillslopes are closed for grazing and agriculture for environmental rehabilitation. In order to assess the effect of these exclosures on water balances, a correct assessment of evapotranspiration is needed. A common method for calculating evapotrans...


Descheemaeker, KatrienRaes, DirkAllen, R.Nyssen, JanPoesen, J.Muys, B.Haile, M.Deckers, J.[Two rapid appraisals of FAO-56 crop coefficients for semiarid natural vegetation of the northern Ethiopian highlands]Two rapid appraisals of FAO-56 crop coefficients for semiarid natural vegetation of the northern Ethiopian highlands

The establishment of exclosures (i.e. areas closed for grazing and agriculture) is a common practice to reverse land degradation through vegetation regeneration in the semiarid highland areas of northern Ethiopia. In order to assess the effect of exclosures on water flows, the water balance compo...

Studies on the impacts of environmental rehabilitation in semi-arid areas are often conducted over limited space and time scales, and do typically not include detailed biophysical components. This study makes a multi-scale assessment over a time span of 30 years of environmental rehabilitation in...
