Abstract

Water erosion is a form of land degradation and desertification that contributes to a large amount of soil loss in regions characterized by a semi-arid climate (Bermúdez in Erosion hydrique, désertification et aménagement dans l’environnement méditerranéen semi-aride. Universidad de Murcia, 1996).
