The influence of climatic change and human activity on erosion processes in sub‐arid watersheds in southern East Siberia
Abstract A LUCIFS model variant is presented that represents the influence of climate and land use change on fluvial systems. The study considers trends of climatic characteristics (air temperature, annual precipitation totals, rainfall erosion index, aridity and continentality coefficients) for the...
