Osumgborogwu, I. E., Wainwright, J., Turnbull, L., & Uzoigwe, L. O. (2022). A multi‐method approach to analyse changes in gully characteristics between 2009 and 2018 in southeast Nigeria. Land Degradation and Development, 33(9), 1398-1409. https://doi.org/10.1002/ldr.4246

Gully erosion is the dominant environmental problem in southeast Nigeria and has led to loss of human and material resources. In this study, we evaluated changes in gully characteristics in southeast Nigeria and their potential drivers between 2009 a...
