Effects of moss restoration on surface runoff and initial soil erosion in a temperate vineyard by C. Gall, S. Oldenburg, M. Nebel, T. Scholten, S. Seitz

“…While moss restoration reduced surface runoff slightly more and sediment discharge slightly less compared with cover crops (68.1 % and 87.7 %, respectively), these differences were not statistically significant. Sediment discharge varied seasonally for moss restoration, especially from April to June; this is most likely due to the decline in moss cover and the foliage of the vines in June, as concentrated canopy drip points form on the leaves and woody surfaces of the vines, increasing erosion. …”
