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...
متن کاملEstimation of Soil Erosion Using RUSLE Model and Determination of Direct and Indirect Damages in Kan Watershed
Prioritization of different regions at watersheds based on the erosion rate and sediment yield with approach of its economic effects can lead to the production of valuable information for projects of soil conservatism. The present study aim was sub-watersheds prioritization of Kan watershed based on erosion condition with the approach of economic losses from erosion and sediment. Therefore, the...
متن کاملSoil erosion estimation in conservation tillage systems with poultry litter application using RUSLE 2.0 model
Soil erosion is a major threat to global economic and environmental sustainability. This study evaluated long-term effects of conservation tillage with poultry litter application on soil erosion estimates in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) plots using RUSLE 2.0 computer model. Treatments consisting of no-till, mulch-till, and conventional tillage systems, winter rye (Secale cereale L.) cover cro...
متن کاملEstimation of Soil Erosion using Remote Sensing and GIS and Prioritization of Catchments
Soil erosion is one of the most critical environmental hazards of recent times. A large area suffers from soil erosion, which in turn, reduces productivity. Methods such as the Universal Soil Loss Equation or Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation are widely used for the estimation of soil erosion from catchment areas. The paper deals with the estimation of soil erosion using Universal Soil Loss ...
متن کاملEvaluation of soil erosion and sediment yield estimation various empirical model by observation values (Case study: Babolroud watershed, Mazandaran Provienc)
In this study where done in Babolroud basin, seven models include MPSIAC, EPM, Fournier, Douglas, Kirkby, Geomorphology and Hydrophysical was evaluated to determine the best model for estimation of soil erosion and sediment yield. These models have not been compared together as integrated in the previous researches. The zoning soil erosion intensity map was prepared for each model using GIS. T...
