An evaluation of the pesera soil erosion model and its application to a case study in Zakynthos, Greece

Abstract. The Pan‐European Soil Erosion Risk Assessment (pesera ) model was evaluated using existing soil erosion data collected under various types of climate, vegetation, landscape and soil conditions. The data used represent a variety of typical Mediterranean land uses such as winter wheat, vines, olives and bare, stony land prevailing in hilly areas. Using this data, the model was calibrated for sediment transport by overland flow and results compared to measured soil erosion values from runoff plots and a watershed on a monthly basis. The performance of the model was assessed statistically, showing that it can be satisfactorily used for predicting soil erosion rates under the conditions included in the study. The overall model estimate including all the available experimental data was 0.69 t ha^?1 yr^?1 with a maximum error of 1.49 t ha^?1 yr^?1. After validation, the model was applied to a small watershed (60 ha) of great ecological importance for the sea turtle Caretta caretta. For this purpose, soil and vegetation maps were compiled from all the necessary data for applying the model. The model was run for three years using daily data from an existing nearby meteorological station. The predicted and measured soil erosion rates for a 7‐month period were 0.31 t and 0.18 t, respectively. Application of the model to each mapping unit showed the over‐riding importance of land use for sediment generation under the given climatic conditions. Bare land, occupying 5.5% of the watershed area, generated up to 69% of the total sediments estimated for the watershed. It is concluded that the pesera model can be used as a regional diagnostic tool under a range of soil, topographic and climatic conditions for identifying the best land use type and vegetation cover to protect hilly areas from soil erosion. The calculated overall root mean square error for the model is 0.06 t ha^?1 yr^?1, compared to a soil erosion rate of 0.04 t ha^?1 yr^?1, which can be tolerated for protecting the area for the sea turtle.

GIS在生态土地分类中的作用

This paper depicted the physiographic landscape features and natural vegetation situation of study area (the eastern Jilin Province), and expatiates the definition, basic characters and its development of Ecological Land Classification (ELC). Based on the combination of relief map, satellite photography for study area and vegetation inventory data of 480 sample sites, a 5-class and a 15-class ecological land type map was concluded according to 4 important factors including slope, aspect, vegetation and elevation. Ecological Classification System (ECS) is a method to identify, characterize, and map ecosystems. The Ecological Land Type (ELT) was examined and applied initially in eastern Jilin Province. Foundation item: This paper was supported by Chinese Academy of Sciences “100 people” project and the Open Research Station of Changbai Mountain Forest Ecosystem.

杉木林地套种绿肥筛选初报

收集了三十种绿肥,在杉木当年造林地上进行套种试验,根据其生长状况、生物量、覆盖度及对杉木生长的影响,把供试绿肥分成三类,初步筛选出羽扁豆、决明豆、日木草为适宜杉木林地种植的林用绿肥。同时对今后林用绿肥的选择提出了有益的建议。     

盈江县沙化土地的综合治理

山高坡陡，切割强烈；降水丰富，降水年内分配不均；土层深厚，土体疏松等是盈江县沙化土地形成的主要自然因素。森林植被遭到破坏，坡耕地面积逐年增加等是盈江县沙化土地形成的主要人为因素。盈江县现有沙化土地面积2520.5hm^2，有流动沙地、兰固定沙地、固定沙地、沙改田4个沙化土地类型。通过长期的治理，沙化土地各类型面积及利用状况发生明显变化，总体发展趋势呈现逆转，沙化土地得到有效利用。今后需以治理水土流失为中心，采取生物措施、工程措施、农业措施相结合，开发利用并举的综合治理措施。
