Rainfall variability and, in many places, the increase of rainfall intensity have a direct impact on rainfall erosivity. Increasing changes in demography have led to the acceleration of land cover changes in natural areas, as well as in cultivated areas, and, sometimes, in degraded areas and desertified landscapes. These anthropogenized landscapes are more sensitive to erosion. On the other hand, the increase in the number of dams in watersheds traps a great portion of sediment fluxes, which do not reach the sea in the same amount, nor at the same quality, with consequences on coastal geomorphodynamics. This book is dedicated to studies on sediment fluxes from continental areas to coastal areas, as well as observation, modeling, and impact analysis at different scales from watershed slopes to the outputs of large river basins. This book is concentrated on a number of keywords: "erosion" and "sediment transport", "model" and "practice", and "change". The keywords are briefly discussed with respect to the relevant literature. The contributions in this book address observations and models based on laboratory and field data, allowing researchers to make use of such resources in practice under changing conditions.proglacial channelswatershedpracticemodelingreservoirsdegradationrill developmentMediterranean Maghreb Basinurban drainage systemfluvial erosionWadi MinaAlgeriasewer systemsclimate changephosphoruscomplex morphodynamicsincipient depositionriverbedlimiting tractive forcerupturesrunofffloodingsoil losssuspended sedimentsedimentationsedimenttransfererosionspecific degradationsoil erosionXihe River Basinwater fluxessediment fluxesenvironmental changefield measurementsdynamical downscalingmixed-size bed materialtwo-phase flowagriculturesloping flume experimentsmitigation measuresbed load transportshear stressflow dischargeGSDshear Reynolds numberAnthropocenehuman activitiesdepositionsediment deliverysoil slurrySMBA Dambedload transportaggradationCzech Republicsediment transportself-cleansingerosion topographyCCHE1Dsediment retentionSWAT modelmigrationwater quality modellinghillside reservoirserosion modellingMeddi Mohamed1788046Aksoy HafzullahMahé GilScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910367563103321Modeling and Practice of Erosion and Sediment Transport under Change4322366UNINA
