Abstract:

Erosions is present even more in non-agricultural land. So we can say that in some watersheds of the rivers of our country, for the whole territory scraping evaluated various different rivers. Forests continue to be the main source for heating, the destruction of forests is continuously incalculable. All logging of forest massifs (oak, black pine) is converted into a real concern for residents of many areas of our country, after cutting has caused the gëryerjeve and landslides. Erosion is the process of transport and deposition inhibitor of dust and solids during which leave the surface of the earth by the different processes and factors that occur as wind or water leaks and then being transported and deposited elsewhere. While erosion is a natural process, human activity has increased by 20-50 times the rate at which erosion is occurring. Forest area as a result of lowering the level of forest vegetation coverage from deforestation, fires, natural disasters, construction of new roads, andclimate change are among the urban extensions most distinguishing that stimulates the process of soil erosion. Consequently we are dealing with the acceleration of erosion causing problems that can classify as ‘on – site’ and ‘off-site’. Effects “onsite” consequently lead to reduce the productivity of forests and pastures, since we are dealing with the loss of top-level layers of soil that are rich in nutrients and minerals salts. The main objective of this study is to contribute to developing the strategy for the conservation of soil erosion and surface water and also identify potential risk and reflect the current erosion in the watershed of Boville. This study is part of the use of Geographic Information System (GIS). Initially, his main goal was to collect and use environmental data to be used in environmental studies as typical character of the biotope inventory, atmospheric pollution, water pollution. Corine also included the creation of a database in a Geographic Information System (GIS) and the exchange of data generated.
