The first part deals with assessment of soil erosion that covers historical sediment dating to understand past environmental impacts due to tillage; laboratory simulation to clarify the effect of soil surface microtopography; integrated field observation and the random forest machine learning algorithm to assess watershed-scale soil erosion assessment; and developing the sediment delivery distributed (SEDD) model for sub-watershed erosion risk prioritization. In Part II, the factors controlling soil erosion and vegetation degradation as influenced by topographic positions and climatic regions; long-term land use change; and improper implementation of land management measures are well dealt with. Part III presents different land management technologies that could reduce soil erosion at various spatial scales; improve land productivity of marginal lands with soil microbes; and reclaim degraded farmland using dredged reservoir sediments. The final part relates livelihood diversification to climate vulnerability as well as the coping strategy to the adverse impacts of soil erosion through sustainable land management implementation which opens prospects for policy formulation. The studies cover regions of Africa, Europe, North America and Asia, being dominantly conducted under the framework of international scientific collaborations through employing a range techniques and scales, from the laboratory to watershed scales. We believe those unique features of the book could attract the interest of the wider scientific community worldwide. 517 $aSoil Erosion and Sustainable Land Management 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $a16S rRNA 610 $aAcacia decurrens 610 $aANFIS 610 $aANN 610 $aarid regions 610 $abackfilled loess 610 $abacteria 610 $aclimate change 610 $aconstructability 610 $adegraded land 610 $adisdrometer 610 $adrought 610 $adrought prone 610 $adrought-prone 610 $adryland 610 $aendemic plant species 610 $aenvironmental impact 610 $aerosion crises 610 $aErosion rate 610 $aEthiopian highlands 610 $aEucalyptus 610 $afungi 610 $aGully Land Consolidation 610 $agypsum 610 $aHerfindahl-Simpson diversity index 610 $ahighland 610 $ahuman activities 610 $aITS 610 $aland degradation 610 $aland use 610 $alime 610 $alivelihood diversification 610 $alivelihood vulnerability 610 $alowland 610 $amarginal soil 610 $amicro-dam 610 $amicrobial community 610 $amicrostructural characteristic 610 $amidland 610 $amultivariate probit 610 $aordered probit 610 $aphysical-mechanical property 610 $apolyacrylamide 610 $apore size distribution 610 $arainfall kinetic energy 610 $arainfall simulator 610 $areclaimed farmland 610 $arestoration 610 $arunoff 610 $aRUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation model) 610 $aSEDD 610 $asediment 610 $asediment delivery distributed model 610 $asediment delivery ratio 610 $asediment transport 610 $asediment yield 610 $asedimentation 610 $aShannon-entropy index 610 $aShihmen Reservoir watershed 610 $asoil detachment 610 $asoil erosion 610 $asoil loss 610 $asoil microbes 610 $asoil organic carbon 610 $asoil type 610 $asplash cup 610 $asplash erosion 610 $astructure stability 610 $asustainable land management 610 $aSVM 610 $a? coefficient 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aTsunekawa$b Atsushi$4edt$01302980 702 $aHaregeweyn$b Nigussie$4edt 702 $aTsunekawa$b Atsushi$4oth 702 $aHaregeweyn$b Nigussie$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557339603321 996 $aSoil Erosion and Sustainable Land Management (SLM)$93026798 997 $aUNINA
