The role of biocrust-induced exopolymeric matrix in runoff generation in arid and semiarid zones – a mini review
Although playing an important role in shaping the environment, the mechanisms responsible for runoff initiation and yield in arid and semiarid regions are not yet fully explored. With infiltration-excess overland flow, known also as Hortonian overland flow (HOF) taking place in these areas, the uppe...
