Quantification of water related soil erosion in the transboundary basin of the Bia (West Africa)

<p>In view of the complexity of the phenomenon of water related soil erosion in the Bia catchment area, linked to a large heterogeneity of soils, to a very scattered and in some places non-existent vegetation cover, and to a poorly distributed precipitation in both space and time, a mapping te...
