1. Quantitative Analysis of Sub-catchment Scale Erosion-sedimentation Dynamics in a Grassed Buffer Zone Using Hyper-resolution Soil Loss Modeling in a Hungarian Hilly Arable Environment

Soil erosion represents one of the most severe environmental and economic risks in arable crop production, leading to the irreversible degradation of the topsoil layer. This research aims to provide a quantitative analysis of the sediment retention capacity of a grassed buffer strip installed within an erosion rill, utilizing 1*1 m resolution soil loss modeling. The methodological base of the study was the Unit Stream Power-based Erosion Deposition (USPED) model. The application of USPED... Z. Szenek, D. Szám, C. Centeri, G. Milics, M. László
