Assessment of Water Erosion by Integrating RUSLE Model, GIS and Remote Sensing – Case of Tamdrost Watershed (Morocco)

evaluating the amount of erosion and sediment in lavarefin watershed (hormozgan province) by using remote sensing (rs), geographic information system (gis), and empirical model (rusle)

â increase in wastage of soil resources in watershed is a persistent challenge that with increase in population and pressure on natural sources and unstable plantation on gradient farms and soils cause production reduces on farms, and also decrease in daily ratio of farms to population can cause more pressure on lands and natural resources.lavarefin watershed placed in 60 km from bandarabass in...

Efficiency Assessment of Rangeland Hydrology and Erosion Model (RHEM) for water erosion quantification (Case Study: Sangane Watershed-Iran)

Spatial dynamics for relative contribution of cropping pattern analysis on environment by integrating remote sensing and GIS

Agriculture resources reflected to be one of the most imperative renewable and dynamic natural resources. Agricultural sustainability has the premier priority in all countries, whether developed or developing. Cropping system analysis is indispensable for grinding the sustainability of agricultural science. Crop alternation is stated as growing one crop after another on the same piece of la...

Modeling Soil Erosion Using Rusle and Gis Tools

Soil erosion involves detachment and transport of soil particles from top soil layers, degrading soil quality and reducing the productivity of affected lands. Soil eroded from the upland catchment causes depletion of fertile agricultural land and the resulting sediment deposited at the river networks creates river morphological change and reservoir sedimentation problems. However, land managers...
