Estimation of Rainfall Erosion Index
Journal of the Irrigation and Drainage Division, 1974The rainfall erosion index in the Universal Soil-Loss Equation has been intensively studied using an analytic approach. Simplified procedures for its computation have been developed and presented. The methodology ties together the eastern and western portions of the United States and is based primarily upon the rainfall distribution curves as published

Rainfall erosivity in south-central Nigeria
Soil Technology, 1995Abstract Rainfall data collected from 1986 to 1990 at Okomu (6° 25′N; 5° 12′E; 76 m above mean sea level), a humid forest area near Benin City, southern Nigeria, were used to evaluate erosivity characteristics. The average annual rainfall was 2048 mm and the distribution pattern was unimodal.

Rainfall erosivity map for Ghana
Geoderma, 1996Abstract Monthly rainfall data, spanning over a period of more than thirty years, were used to compute rainfall erosivity indices for various stations in Ghana, using the Fournier index, c , defined as p 2 P , where p is the rainfall amount in the wettest month and P is the annual rainfall amount.

Rainfall erosivity in Brazil: A review
CATENA, 2013article i nfo In this paper, we review the erosivity studies conducted in Brazil to verify the quality and representativeness of the results generated and to provide a greater understanding of the rainfall erosivity (R factor) in Brazil. We searched the ISI Web of Science, Scopus, SciELO, and Google Scholar databases and in recent theses and ...

Rainfall Simulators for Soil Erosion Research
2017Rainfall simulators are research tools designed to apply water in a form similar to natural rainstorms. Researchers can measure hydrologic or soil erosion characteristics of newly developed cropping and management practices in a relatively short time. The drop formers that produce the simulated raindrops are the key components of rainfall simulators. A
