Εκτίμηση του κινδύνου διάβρωσης στην πυρόπληκτη περιοχή του Εθνικού Πάρκου Δαδιάς-Λευκίμης- Σουφλίου μετά την φωτιά του 2011 με Γεωγραφικά Συστήματα Πληροφοριών

Risk assessment of errosion in the fireaffected Dadia-Lefkimi-Soufli forest National Park with the use of GIS
Summary:
The purpose of the current work is the spatial and quantitative assessment of
the surface soil erosion at the area of the national park of “DADIA” which was hit by
fire in the summer of 2011, with the use of geographic information systems.
To achieve the goal, Soil erosion was considered with the use of the Revised
Universal Soil Loss Equation (RULSE) and geographic information systems. The
processing of the available data (geological map, digital terrain model, climate data
etc.) was achieved with the use of geographic information systems. As a result maps
of tangential loss were produced before and after, with the current situation after the
implementation of anti-corrosion measures that were made from the forest
management of the district of “Evros”, while soil images were produced after the
restoration of the ground cover due to regeneration of the forest ecosystem
