Repelled by the ash-covered ground, and undeterred by burnt-over vegetation, water is expected to sweep down the canyons toward the Rio Grande, causing large-scale erosion.
This study is an important step forward in conducting accurate large-scale erosion evaluation.
Landscape responses to large-scale erosion and subsequent reforestation have been similar between France and New Zealand though major reforestation occurred in France more than a century before that in New Zealand.
In the East Coast, the primary drivers for the observed large-scale erosion were clearance of the indigenous forest, its geological make-up and the severity of regional and local-scale storm events.
Variants of the stream power model have become standard for large-scale erosion modeling in geographic information systems (GIS) because they can be applied over broad areas without the need for detailed knowledge of stream characteristics.
Tectonism may also promote species radiation indirectly, by the stimulation of large-scale erosion resulting from increased river gradients.
Environmental challenges include large scale landscape damage, soil erosion, loss of forest ecosystem and wildlife habitat, air, water and soil pollution.
Analysis of dune erosion processes in large scale flume experiments, In this volume of Coastal Engineering.].
However, large-scale soil erosion model-factor parameterization and quantification is difficult due to the costs, labor and time involved.
Superimposed onto the karst aquifer is a landscape, which can evolve with time by small-scale diffusive processes, large-scale river erosion, and karst denudation.
