“…Among several models, Erosion Potential Method -EPM, originally developed for Yugoslavia by Gavrilovic (1972), was repeatedly applied in Iran (Draganic et al, 2015;Leandro Naves Silva et al, 2015;Behzadfar et al, 2015Behzadfar et al, , 2014aBehzadfar et al, , 2014bMoradi et al, 2015;Amini et al, 2014;Zia Abadi and Ahmadi, 2011;Sadeghi, 2005Sadeghi, , 1993Khaleghi, 2005;Maleki, 2003;Nadjafi, 2003) the watersheds of Apennine and in the Balkan Peninsula (Blinkov and Kostadinov, 2010;Kostadinov et al, 2014Kostadinov et al, , 2006Lenaerts, 2014;Milevski et al, 2008;Ristic et al, 2012;Sekularac, 2013;Spalevic et al 2014aSpalevic et al , 2014bSpalevic et al , 2013aSpalevic et al , 2013bSpalevic et al , 2013cSpalevic et al , 2012aSpalevic et al , 2012bStefanovic, 2004;Tazioli, 2009, Zorn andKomac, 2008), but also in the other regions in the world, for example in arid and semi-arid areas of the south-western USA (Gavrilovic, 1988), Saudi Arabia (Al-Turki et al, 2015;Aburas Al-Ghamdi, 2010)... The method is based on the factors affecting erosion in a catchment; its parameters dependent on the temperature, the mean annual rainfall, the soil use, the geological properties and some other features of the catchment.…”

“…Among several models, Erosion Potential Method -EPM, originally developed in Yugoslavia by Gavrilovic (1972), was in recent times repeatedly applied to watersheds in the Apennines and in the Balkan Peninsula (Stefanovic, 2004;Zorn and Komac, 2009;Milevski et al, 2008;Tazioli, 2009;Blinkov and Kostadinov, 2010;Ristic et al, 2012;Kostadinov et al, 2006Kostadinov et al, , 2014Spalevic et al, 2014a), but also in other regions in the world, for example in arid and semi-arid areas of the south-western USA (Gavrilovic, 1988), Saudi Arabia (Al-Turki et al, 2015). The method considers the main factors affecting erosion in a catchment, i.e.…”

This paper presents an Ecological-Economic (Eco-Eco) modelling using the Intensity of Erosion and Outflow (IntErO) model for calculation of sediment yield and runoff assessing the impacts of different land covers on soil erosion intensity. Calculations have been made for the Velicka River basin, which is one of 57 sub-basins of the Lim River in the Northeast Montenegro. Several different land use scenarios were then simulated in the model in order to find the optimal scenario of land use for intensive seed potato production. The results of Ecological (Eco-) analysis shown that the real soil loss under current conditions is 18148 m³yr -1 . If seed potato production is introduced, the model calculated a soil loss of 20834 m³yr -1 as sediment yield. In order to balance the damage caused by the introduction of seed potato production we considered also the ecological measure of afforestation to reduce soil loss caused by seed potato production. The model calculated that afforestation would result in a decrease of sediment yield to 17886 m³yr -1 . The results of Economic (-Eco) analysis revealed that the investment of €3,385 per ha for the establishment of the seed potato production will provide the income for the farmers of €15,000 per hectare annually. In parallel, we proposed the investment for the protection of the area (258 ha) with afforestation that amounts to €330,608 (€1,281 per ha), for the period of two years, with no other costs in the next decade. The research results demonstrate that the application of the Eco-Eco modelling, by using the IntErO model for studying the effect of soil erosion and possible land use for intensive seed potato production in the Velicka River Basin provides cost effective solutions for the benefit of the local population.

“…This models calculate inputs using analytics of the Erosion Potential Method (EPM), originally developed by Gavrilovic (1972). This approach has been tasted earlier in many catchments area in Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Italy, Iran, Montenegro, Macedonia, Serbia and Slovenia and Morocco (Behzadfar, et al, 2014;Kostadinov et al, 2006;Gholami et al, 2016;Khaledi Darvishan et al, 2016Vujacic et al, 2017). In Morocco have been successfully used in the Region of Western Rif of Morocco (Ouallali et al 2016).…”

The study was carried out in the watershed of Oued El Abid that is located upstream of the Bin El Ouidane Dam in Morocco. Looking for a sustainable watershed management practices, we estimated soil losses from the river basin and the sediment yield deposited in the dam of Bin El Ouidane, using the Intensity of Erosion and Outflow-IntErO model, based on the Erosion Potential Method-EPM. The watershed of the lake receiving the waters and sediments from the two mean water courses Oued El Abid and Assif Ahansal, therefore before to proceed the calculation, the watershed was divided in two sub basins; the soil erosion and sediment yield were calculated for each sub basin. The result of calculation for the studied Oued El Abid river basin showed that the production of erosion material in the river basin is 3.960.115 m³yr-1. Coefficient of the deposit retention, calculated using the IntErO model, was 0.3 and as a consequence, real soil losses were calculated on 1.188.657 m³yr-1 ; specific real soil losses per km 2 402 m³km 2 yr-1. Our findings, based on Gavrilovic classification, pointed out that the studied area is with a medium potential of soil erosion risk, due to the steep land slope and low vegetation cover in the watershed. The model outcome is validated using the Bathymetry measurements in the Dam of Bin El Ouidane.
