In the United States 20% of privately owned rangelands are vulnerable to accelerated soil loss. Estimated annual costs of direct and indirect damage caused by soil erosion in the United States is $27 billion dollars. More than 50% of Asia and 70% of Middle Eastern rangelands are degraded. Exact e...

International Cooperative Development of Techniques for Sustainability when Managing and Restoring Degraded Rangelands
Due to recurring droughts and severe overgrazing, Jordan’s dry rangelands are exceptionally prone to degradation. Establishing both restoration and sustainable rangeland management practices are crucial to reverse the negative impacts on the ecosystem. However, a primary estimate of the native ba...

Exploring the Jordanian rangeland status transition merging the restoration experiment with modeling - 71st Annual Meeting, Technical Training and Trade Show January 28 - February 2, 2018
Jordan's rangelands, the so called Badia, home of the Bedouins, are threatened through a combination of over-exploitation of the ecosystem services and a changing climate towards drier seasons and highly erratic rainfalls. In the recent decades, the once productive grazing lands transformed into ...

Restoring Degraded Rangelands in Jordan: Optimizing Mechanized Micro Water Harvesting using Rangeland Hydrology and Erosion Model (RHEM).
Zarqa River Basin (ZRB) is among Jordan's most important surface water basins, hosting the country's major cities and industry, and providing water for agricultural production within the basin and beyond. ZRB's surface runoff dilutes the treated wastewater of Khirbat As-Samra plant, mainly discha...
