Soil erosion by water causes the loss of soil mineral particles and soil organic carbon (SOC). For determining the effectiveness of soil conservation measures on arable land, rainfall simulations are regularly carried out in field trials in the Czech Republic. The objective of this study was to analyse a dataset from 82 rainfall simulations on bare fallow soils, containing information on slope inclination, soil texture, soil bulk density, SOC, and soil loss with respect to the preferential erosion of fine-grained soil particles and the enrichment of SOC in the eroded soil. Each rainfall simulation comprised a first rainfall period of 30 min and a second one of 15 min in duration. The rainfall intensity was 1 mm min−1 and the kinetic energy of the raindrops accounted for 8.78 J m−2 mm−1. Runoff samples were taken to determine the soil loss and SOC enrichment in the eroded material. Regression analyses revealed that on sites with 14% slope inclination, soil loss was driven by preferential erosion of fine-grained particles in the first rainfall period. Low soil loss was generally coupled with high SOC enrichment and vice versa, indicating that preferential erosion of SOC occurred mainly in soils with low erosion susceptibility. In order to prevent erosion of SOC and maintain soil quality, soil conservation measures are important in all soil types. |
