Abstract The degree of soil erosion depends on the erodibility of the soil and the erosive agents. The primary energy source for soil detachment and transport in water erosion processes is rain and runoff. In the northwest region of Somalia, we thoroughly evaluated the aridity and erosivity indices. This study,…

Abdiaziz Hassan Nur; Abdullahi Ali Ibrahim; Abas Abdi Warsame; Abdikarim Hurre Farah Abstract Soil erosion is a pressing issue that threatens environmental stability and agricultural productivity across the globe. In Somalia, where the population already contends with severe socioeconomic and environmental challenges, the effects of erosion compound problems like food insecurity and land…

Abstract Soil erosion represents critical environmental and agricultural challenges in Somalia, where climate variability, recurrent droughts, and unsustainable land-use practices exacerbate vulnerability. This review synthesises findings from published and unpublished studies, reports, and geospatial assessments to evaluate rainfall erosivity, soil loss, and land degradation dynamics across different regions of Somalia.…

Abstract Soil erosion is a major environmental challenge that necessitates meticulous investigation and the implementation of sustainable management practices. The objective of this study is to provide a thorough assessment of soil erosion in the Bay region from 2020 to 2023, utilizing the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and…
