“…Several studies have aimed to analyze the effect of precipitation data on RE calculations at different time scales [58,59]. These studies have revealed that the accuracy of RE calculations from precipitation data is more accurate at smaller time scales.…”

“…(1) It provides insights into the overall erosion trend. Although daily precipitation data do not fully reflect the spatial and temporal distribution of rainfall intensity [22,58], daily precipitation data over a longer period can shed light on the overall erosive power of rainfall in a certain region, thus providing insights into the overall erosion trend. This information is important for assessing the degree of erosion in different areas, quantifying geographical variability, and comparing precipitation erosion risks [60,61].…”

The Rolling Hilly Region of Northeast China (RHRNEC) is a critical grain production area in China, and soil erosion is a major problem in this region. To determine spatial and temporal changes in rainfall erosivity (RE) in the RHRNEC and generate information useful for soil and water conservation, agricultural management, and ecological protection efforts, a RE index consisting of nine erosivity indices based on normal and extreme precipitation was established. The normal RE index (NREI) comprised annual RE (ARE), wet season RE (WRE), dry season RE (DRE), typical wet-month RE (TWRE), and typical dry-month RE (TDRE), and the extreme RE index set (EREI) comprised maximum one-day RE (RE × 1 day), maximum five consecutive days RE (RE × 5 day), storm RE (RE50), and maximum continuous RE (CRE). ARE, WRE, and TWRE decreased at relative rates of 2.5%, 2.9%, and 4.1%, respectively. By comparison, DRE increased at a non-significant relative rate of 6.3%, and all extreme RE indices decreased at a non-significant rate relative to 1981–2015 mean values. The future trends for all RE indices were predicted to be opposite to historical trends. The future trends and historical trends of all indices exhibited opposite patterns. RE gradually increased from north to south, and WRE, DRE, and all extreme RE indices were significantly negatively correlated with longitude, latitude, and altitude (p < 0.05). ARE, WRE, and TWRE showed increasing trends in the north and south and decreasing trends in the center. The findings are useful for soil and water conservation, especially for agricultural management and ecological protection.

“…The R factor has been calculated from hourly data by using the Rainfall Intensity Summarisation Tool (RIST 3.99.12) software [38]. This is the lowest time resolution available and, unfortunately, produces an underestimation of the real calculation by more than 50% [39].…”

Soil erosion in European Mediterranean vineyards is the main impact factor of uncontrolled solute and nutrient transport, degradation of soil structure, and loss of organic matter, which are key controlling factors in grape productivity and quality. The relationship between soil loss and grape productivity in the Aglianico DOC and DOCG areas of Southern Italy has been studied. Erosion values estimated through the RUSLE model were compared with grape productivity from 2011 to 2019. The obtained results show a negative correlation between the two parameters. The amounts of soil loss for different vineyard slope classes were also considered. The erosion values increase by an order of magnitude moving from the gentle slopes (0–5°) to the steeper ones (>30°), typical of hilly and mountainous areas. The planned shift in the future of vineyards towards these altitudinal bands could prove to be uneconomical if conservative techniques are not carried out.
