Monitoring Soil Erosion of Agricultural Land in Czech Republic and Data Assessment of Erosion Events from Spatial Database

Original language description

In 2011 State Land Office (hereinafter referred to as SLO) and Research Institute for Soil and Water Conservation (hereinafter referred to as RISWC) established Monitoring Erosion of Agricultural Land (hereinafter referred to as ME) as a joint project in the Czech Republic. The main idea was to create a spatial database that would be a source of data and information for evaluation and modeling erosion process, and also which would create the basis for proposals of preventive measures and measures to reduce negative impacts of erosion events. The subject of monitoring deals with manifestations of water erosion, wind erosion and earth flow in which damage of agriculture land is caused. The website, available on http://me.vumop.cz, is used as a tool for keeping records and browsing through the information about the monitored events. Each record in the database is spatially localized by a drawing and it contains the description information about event character (data, situation description etc.). Till the end of 2014 there were 515 events in the database. The events affected 696 land parcels and 352 farmers. 85% of erosion events was sheet erosion or combination of sheet erosion and rill erosion. The most events occurred in May and June. 51 % of them occurred in areas under maize, 31% under fully closed canopy and 40% in cambisols. 20 - 50 ha sized land parcels with 500 – 750 m slope length are most frequently affected by erosion event.
