the modeling can provide a quantitative approach and consistency in the estimationsoil erosion and sediment yield by a wide range of conditions. in this study, the integration method of revised universal soil loss equation model, geographic information system and remote sensing techniques were used in order to identify the spatial distribution of soil erosion and sediment yield in the talar wat...

Soil erosion is a serious environmental problem in Kothagiri Taluk. Many studies have been carried out to map shifting cultivation and areas susceptible to soil erosion. Mostly, estimated soil loss is taken as the basis to classify the level of soil loss susceptibility of area. The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) function is a commonly used erosion model for this purpose in Kothagi...

L’érosion des sols est un risque naturel qui exacerbé par les activités anthropiques en République démocratique du Congo. Cependant, il existe peu d’information sur la spatialisation de ce phénomène à l’échelle territoriale. Cette étude basée l’utilisation modèle USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation) et données accès libre pour cartographier zones d’érosion faire priorisation conservation dans le...

Soil erosion implications on future food security are gaining global attention because in many areas worldwide there is an imbalance between soil loss and its subsequent deposition. Soil erosion is a complex phenomenon affected by many factors such as climate, topography and land cover (in particular forest resources, natural vegetation and agriculture) while directly influencing water sediment...

A primary objective of this paper is to change the input data requirement Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation (MUSLE) for calculation its runoff factor possible application in data-scarce areas. Basically, MUSLE was developed a small agricultural watershed, where extent erosion from sheet rill erosion, but we cannot exactly tell whether it considers gully or not. The underlying physical assum...
