However, their accuracy remains rather questionable since the scarcity of field records hinders the validation of simulated values. In this context, this study aims to present a method for measuring sediment deposition at a typical Mediterranean catchment (870 ha) in Greece through high spatial resolution field measurements acquired by an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) survey. Three-dimensional modeling is considered to be an emerging technique for surface change detection. The UAV-derived point cloud comparison, applying the Structure-from-Motion (SfM) technique at the Platana sediment retention dam test site, quantified annual topsoil change in cm-scale accuracy (0.02\u20130.03 m), delivering mean sediment yield of 1620 m3 \u00b1 180 m3 or 6.05 t ha\u22121yr\u22121 and 3500 m3 \u00b1 194 m3 or 13 t ha\u22121yr\u22121 for the 2020\u20132021 and 2021\u20132022 estimation. Moreover, the widely applied PESERA and RUSLE models estimated the 2020\u20132021 mean sediment yield at 1.12 t ha\u22121yr\u22121 and 3.51 t ha\u22121yr\u22121, respectively, while an increase was evident during the 2021\u20132022 simulation (2.49 t ha\u22121yr\u22121 and 3.56 t ha\u22121yr\u22121, respectively). Both applications appear to underestimate the net soil loss rate, with RUSLE being closer to the measured results. The difference is mostly attributed to the model\u2019s limitation to simulate gully erosion or to a C-factor misinterpretation. To the authors\u2019 better knowledge, this study is among the few UAV applications employed to acquire high-accuracy soil loss measurements. The results proved extremely useful in our attempt to measure sediment yield at the cm scale through UAV-SfM and decipher the regional soil erosion and sediment transport pattern, also offering a direct assessment of the retention dams\u2019 life expectancy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs15051339","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,6]],"date-time":"2023-03-06T03:02:32Z","timestamp":1678071752000},"page":"1339","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Measuring Annual Sedimentation through High Accuracy UAV-Photogrammetry Data and Comparison with RUSLE and PESERA Erosion Models"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Simoni","family":"Alexiou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mineralogy and Geology, Department of Natural Resources & Agricultural Engineering, Agricultural University of Athens, 75 Iera Odos Str., 11855 Athens, Greece"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3809-1465","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nikolaos","family":"Efthimiou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Environmental Sciences, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, 16500 Prague, Czech Republic"}]},{"given":"Mina","family":"Karamesouti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geoinformation Science Lab, Geography Department, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin, 10117 Berlin, Germany"},{"name":"IRI THESys, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin, 10117 Berlin, Germany"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3576-3636","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ioannis","family":"Papanikolaou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mineralogy and Geology, Department of Natural Resources & Agricultural Engineering, Agricultural University of Athens, 75 Iera Odos Str., 11855 Athens, Greece"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1094-9397","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emmanouil","family":"Psomiadis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mineralogy and Geology, Department of Natural Resources & Agricultural Engineering, Agricultural University of Athens, 75 Iera Odos Str., 11855 Athens, Greece"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1451-0576","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nikos","family":"Charizopoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mineralogy and Geology, Department of Natural Resources & Agricultural Engineering, Agricultural University of Athens, 75 Iera Odos Str., 11855 Athens, Greece"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"99","DOI":"10.1080\/153249802317304422","article-title":"Land degradation in the drylands","volume":"16","author":"Dregne","year":"2002","journal-title":"Arid L.
