Soil and water conservation measures to adapt cropping systems to climate change facilitated water stresses in Africa

Mavis Badu Brempong et al.

Summary: The complex controls and non-linear responses of the climate system to global warming make it difficult to predict future precipitation amounts and timelines. However, current observations indicate that unusually high rates of flooding and droughts are occurring in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), threatening food security. Climate change has a huge impact on SSA despite its minimal contribution to global climate change. To ensure sustainable food availability, SSA needs to prepare agricultural soils for anticipated climate variabilities by employing technologies from various scientific fields.

Modeling Hydrological Responses to Land Use Change in Sejnane Watershed, Northern Tunisia

Manel Mosbahi et al.

Summary: Land use change is a critical factor affecting hydrological processes, and understanding its long-term dynamics is essential for sustainable water resources management. This study aimed to quantify and analyze land use change and its impacts on hydrology in the Sejnane watershed in northern Tunisia from 1985 to 2021. Remote sensing and a SWAT model were used, and land use maps were developed for different years. The results showed significant changes in land use, which strongly influenced water balance components, with an increase in runoff and a decrease in percolation. The construction of a dam, expansion of irrigated areas, and growth of olive tree plantations were identified as major contributors to the hydrological changes.

Assessment of Ecosystem Service Value in Response to LULC Changes Using Geospatial Techniques: A Case Study in the Merbil Wetland of the Brahmaputra Valley, Assam, India

Durlov Lahon et al.

Summary: The alteration of land use and land cover caused by human activities has had a notable impact on ecosystem services at regional and global levels. In this study, we estimated and showed the spatio-temporal variation of ecosystem service values in a small freshwater wetland in India from 1990 to 2040. The results indicated an increase in built-up areas and agricultural land, as well as a decrease in open water and vegetation cover, leading to an ecological imbalance in the study site. Protecting the natural ecosystem should be prioritized in future land-use planning.

Quantifying the impacts of spatiotemporal land use and land cover changes on soil loss across agroecologies and slope categories using GIS and RUSLE model in Zoa watershed, southwest Ethiopia

Ginjo Gitima et al.

Summary: Soil erosion in the Ethiopian highlands is closely related to land use/land cover changes, such as deforestation and declining biodiversity. This study used GIS and RUSLE model to quantify the impacts of spatiotemporal land use/land cover changes on soil loss in the Zoa watershed from 1985 to 2021. The results showed that the expansion of bareland and farmland has led to increased soil loss, with the highest rates observed in unprotected surfaces, steep slopes, and the lowland agroecology. Effective soil and water conservation measures are needed to reduce soil erosion hazards.

Impact of land use land cover changes on ecosystem service values in the Dire and Legedadi watersheds, central highlands of Ethiopia: Implication for landscape management decision making

Simeneh Admasu et al.

Summary: This study aimed to analyze the dynamics of land use/land cover change in the catchments of water supply reservoirs between 1985 and 2022 and its impact on ecosystem service values (ESVs). The results showed substantial changes in land use/land cover, with a decline in natural vegetation, grasslands, and eucalyptus plantations, while settlements and cultivated lands increased. Both global and local ESV estimates demonstrated a dramatic decline in ESVs. Therefore, implementing sustainable watershed management practices to prevent further loss of natural ecosystems is highly recommended.

Impacts of Different Gully Consolidation and Highland Protection Models on the Runoff and Sediment Yield in Small Watershed of the Chinese Loess Plateau-A Case Study of Fengbugou in Qingyang City of Gansu

Zhixin Zhao et al.

Summary: This study compares the effects of different measures in gully consolidation and highland protection (GCHP) projects on runoff and sediment yield. The results show that replacing slopes with terraces is more effective than gully head landfill in reducing soil erosion and secondary geological disasters. Imperfect terrace construction can result in increased sediment yield. This study provides a scientific basis for the maintenance and later management of GCHP and helps implement soil and water conservation measures in similar regions worldwide.

Long-Term Impact of Soil and Water Conservation Measures on Soil Erosion in a Tunisian Semi-Arid Watershed

Fathia Jarray et al.

Summary: Understanding and long-term assessment of the efficacy of soil and water conservation (SWC) techniques is essential for sustainable watershed management. This research aims to measure and analyze the impact of SWC interventions on sediment yield using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) in the Wadi Rmel watershed between 2000 and 2020. The study revealed the long-term benefits of SWC, with an increase in terracing areas leading to a cumulative decrease in watershed sediment yield, and identified the southwestern region as a degradation hotspot area in need of erosion controls.
