Predicting Rainfall Erosivity in Honduras [PDF]
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1997 Abstract Iso‐erodent maps can be used in soil conservation planning to identify regions with high rainfall erosive potential. This study was conducted to determine the significance of elevation in predicting the rainfall erosivity index ( R ) in addition to the average ...

Spatio-temporal variability of erosivity in Mato Grosso, Brazil [PDF]
, 2018 The impact of rainfall on surfaces lacking vegetal cover can dissociate soil particles, thereby initiating the erosion process. This is known as rainfall erosivity and is expressed by the R factor in the Universal Soil Loss Equation.

Estimate of the (R)USLE rainfall erosivity factor from monthly precipitation data in mainland Spain [PDF]
, 2016 The need for continuous recording rain gauges makes it difficult to determine the rainfall erosivity factor (R-factor) of the (R)USLE model in areas without good temporal data coverage.

An assessment of the global impact of 21st century land use change on soil erosion [PDF]
, 2017 Human activity and related land use change are the primary cause of accelerated soil erosion, which has substantial implications for nutrient and carbon cycling, land productivity and in turn, worldwide socio-economic conditions.

Parameter-parameter Curah Hujan yang Mempengaruhi Penaksiran Indeks Erosivitas Hujan di Sri Aman, Sarawak [PDF]
, 2015 The soil erosion in some areas can be serious and may continue for such a period that most fertile soil may be lost. Rainfall is the main factor that may result soil erosion.

Influence of the rainfall measurement interval on the erosivity determinations in the Mediterranean area [PDF]
, 2006 The single-storm erosion index, EI, of the USLE and RUSLE models may vary appreciably with the rainfall measurement interval, Dt. However, the effect of Dt on EI has not been investigated in the Mediterranean area.

The increase of rainfall erosivity and initial soil erosion processes due to rainfall acidification [PDF]
Hydrological Processes, 2018 AbstractThe drastic growth of population in highly industrialized urban areas, as well as fossil fuel use, is increasing levels of airborne pollutants and enhancing acid rain. In rapidly developing countries such as Iran, the occurrence of acid rain has also increased. Acid rain is a driving factor of erosion due to the destructive effects on biota and

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...
