On the importance of sediment accumutation for gully and soil erosion control
Abstract
Solid discharge deposition at gullies and small valleys floor has no impact on soil erosion at slopes as it does not influence water runoff conditions no erosion rate within the drainage basin. The most important result of sediments accumulation at gullies floor is prevention of silting of water reservoirs and agricultural lands on floodplains. A complex of erosion control measures is necessary for watersheds protection.
