Runoff and erosion at the micro-plot and slope scale in a small burnt catchment...
Vieira, D.; Keizer, J.; Nunes, J.; Fernandes I.; Faria, S.; Ferreira, R.; Pedrosa, E.; Varela, M.; Gomes Pereira, L.Wildfires can have important impacts on hydrological processes and soil erosion in forest catchments, due to the destruction of vegetation cover and changes to soil properties. However, the processes involved are non-linear and not fully understood. This has severely limited the understanding on the impacts of wildfires, especially in the up-scaling from hillslopes to catchments; in consequence, current models ...
Runoff at the micro-plot and slope scale following wildfire, central Portugal
Vieira, D.; Keizer, J.; Nunes, J.; Fernandes, I.; Faria S.; Ferreira, R.; Pedrosa, E.; Varela, M.; Pereira, L.Through their effects on soil properties and vegetation/litter cover, wildfires can strongly enhance overland flow generation and accelerate soil erosion [1] and, thereby, negatively affect land-use sustainability as well as downstream aquatic and flood zones. Wildfires are a common phenomenon in present-day Portugal, devastating in an average year some 100.000 ha of forest and woodlands and in an exceptional y...
