The role of vegetation cover in the control of soil erosion on the Tihany Peninsula
2002
Centeri, Cs
Land cover has a basic role in soil protection. Soil erosion prediction of the hilly areas in Hungary is limited to arable lands and is not estimated under natural vegetation. Even soil mapping activity of cooperatives is limited to arable lands and soil maps under forests are prepared by forestry. In the present work soil erosion prediction is modelled by Universal Soil Loss Equation on the Tihany Peninsula. Crop management factors for natural vegetation are identified and local soil erodibility measurements are used to prepare an up-to-date and proper soil loss prediction map on the peninsula.
