A comparison between soil loss evaluation index and the C-factor of RUSLE: a case study in the Loess Plateau of China [PDF]
, 2012 Land use and land cover are most important in quantifying soil erosion. Based on the C-factor of the popular soil erosion model, Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and a scale-pattern-process theory in landscape ecology, we proposed a multi ...
