Estimation of Soil Erosion Using Field and Modelling Approaches in an Undisturbed Arnhem Land Catchment, Northern Territory, Australia
An assessment of slope erosion at Tin Camp Creek catchment, Arnhem Land, Northern Territory, Australia, was carried out using the fallout environmental radioisotope caesium-137 (137Cs) as an indicator of soil erosion status, two numerical models (SIBERIA and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE)) and erosion pins. This undisturbed drainage basin is situated in the seasonally wet-dry tropics, with high energy storms and a mean annual ra…

A Survey of Soil Erosion in Australia using Caesium‐137
A survey of soil erosion was conducted in Australia using the fallout radioisotope caesium‐137 as an indicator of topsoil redistribution. Two hundred and six sites were sampled, 100 within rotational cropping and horticultural use, 52 within uncultivated permanent pasture and forest, and 54 in rangelands. Average net soil losses were approximately equal for cultivated cropping lands and rangelands ( ca. 5.5 t ha −1 yr −1 ), and just over 1 t ha −…
The use of Caesium–137 to Assess Surface Soil Erosion Status in a Water–Supply Catchment in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Australia
In the absence of direct erosion measurements, the soil activity of the fallout radionuclide caesium–137 ( 137 Cs) offers an attractive tool for the estimation of long–term (approximately 45 years) net surface and minor rill soil erosion rates for hillslopes. A transect–based soil sampling technique was applied to one woodland and five grazed pasture hillslopes in the Williams River water–supply catchment in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales. An…

Caesium‐137 as an indicator of geomorphic processes in a drainage basin system
Caesium‐137 from fallout from nuclear weapons tests is adsorbed on fine sediments and becomes an effective tracer. It is hypothesised that within a drainage basin, sites undergoing little or no erosion accumulate 137 Cs in their upper layers; cultivated soils will have 137 Cs uniformly distributed within the cultivated layer; eroded soils, cultivated or not, will have relatively less l37 Cs, depending on the severity of erosion. Accumulated sedim…
