Brhane Tesfahunegn, GebrayesusVlek, Paul L.G.Tamene, Lulseged[Management strategies for reducing soil degradation through modeling in a GIS environment in northern Ethiopia catchment]Management strategies for reducing soil degradation through modeling in a GIS environment in northern Ethiopia catchment
Lapeyre, R.Pirard, R.Leimona, B.[Payments for environmental services in Indonesia: What if economic signals were lost in translation?]Payments for environmental services in Indonesia: What if economic signals were lost in translation?

Load estimates are more informative than constituent concentrations alone, as they allow quantification of on- and off-site impacts of environmental processes concerning pollutants, nutrients and sediment, such as soil fertility loss, reservoir sedimentation and irrigation channel siltation. Whil...


Slaets, J.I.F.Piepho, Hans-PeterSchmitter, Petra S.Hilger, T.Cadisch, Georg[Quantifying uncertainty on sediment loads using bootstrap confidence intervals]Quantifying uncertainty on sediment loads using bootstrap confidence intervals

While hydrological science has made great strides forward during the last 50 years with the advance of computing power and availability of satellite images, much is unknown about the sustainable development of water for irrigation, domestic use, and livestock consumption for millions of household...


Alemie, T.C.Tilahun, S.A.Ochoa-Tocachi, B.F.Schmitter, PetraBuytaert, W.Parlange, J.-Y.Steenhuis, T.S.[Predicting shallow groundwater tables for sloping highland aquifers]Predicting shallow groundwater tables for sloping highland aquifers

Maintaining indigenous nutrient supply and positive nutrient balances are key factors in sustaining rice yields. Irrigation systems act as conveyers for water, sediments and nutrients throughout landscapes, especially in mountainous, cultivated tropical areas where erosivity is usually high. Cont...


Slaets, J.I.F.Schmitter, Petra S.Hilger, T.Hue, D.T.T.Piepho, Hans-PeterVien, T.D.Cadisch, Georg[Sediment-associated organic carbon and nitrogen inputs from erosion and irrigation to rice fields in a mountainous watershed in Northwest Vietnam]Sediment-associated organic carbon and nitrogen inputs from erosion and irrigation to rice fields in a mountainous watershed in Northwest Vietnam

Composite agricultural systems with permanent maize cultivation in the uplands and irrigated rice in the valleys are very common in mountainous southeast Asia. The soil loss and fertility decline of the upland fields is well documented, but little is known about reallocation of these sediments wi...


Slaets, J.I.F.Schmitter, Petra S.Hilger, T.Vien, T.D.Cadisch, Georg[Sediment trap efficiency of paddy fields at the watershed scale in a mountainous catchment in northwest Vietnam]Sediment trap efficiency of paddy fields at the watershed scale in a mountainous catchment in northwest Vietnam

Impact of dynamic land use and land cover changes on the livelihood of local communities and ecosystem services is a major concern. This is particularly evident in most dryland agricultural systems in South Asia. We study land use/land cover (LULC) changes over the last two decades in a watershed...


Ahmed, I.M.Gumma, Murali K.Kumar, S.Craufurd, Peter Q.Rafi, I.M.Haileslassie, Amare[Land use and agricultural change dynamics in SAT watersheds of southern India]Land use and agricultural change dynamics in SAT watersheds of southern India

Rehabilitation of large valley bottom gullies in developing countries is hampered by high cost. Stopping head cuts at the time of initiation will prevent large gullies from forming and is affordable. However, research on practices to control shallow gully heads with local materials is limited. Th...


Addisie, Meseret B.Langendoen, E.J.Aynalem, D.W.Ayele, Getaneh K.Tilahun, S.A.Schmitter, PetraMekuria, WoldeMoges, M.M.Steenhuis, Tammo S.[Assessment of practices for controlling shallow valley-bottom gullies in the sub-humid Ethiopian Highlands]Assessment of practices for controlling shallow valley-bottom gullies in the sub-humid Ethiopian Highlands

Land use and management affects runoff and soil loss from a catchment. The present study investigated the effects of land use on runoff and suspended sediment concentration and yield in the northwestern Ethiopia. We selected two small catchments: cultivated land and grassland dominated catchments...


Dagnew, D.C.Guzmán, C.D.Akal, Adugnaw T.Tebebu, T.Y.Zegeye, Assefa D.Mekuria, Wolde M.Tilahun, Seifu A.Steenhuis, Tammo S.[Effects of land use on catchment runoff and soil loss in the sub-humid Ethiopian highlands]Effects of land use on catchment runoff and soil loss in the sub-humid Ethiopian highlands

Underground taming of floods for irrigation (UTFI) is a new approach for mitigating flood impacts through targeted floodwater storage in depleted aquifers for irrigating crops in the dry season. UTFI not only fosters the much desired conjunctive use and management of water resources but also prov...
