Evaluation of USLE and RUSLE Estimated Soil Loss on Rangeland [PDF]
The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE 1.06) were evaluated with rainfall simulation data from a diverse set of rangeland vegetation types (8 states, 22 sites, 132 plots). Dry, wet, and very-wet rainfall simulation treatments were applied to the study plots within a 2-day period.

Estimation of Soil Erosion Rate in Gaushan Watershed Using RUSLE 3D Model [PDF]
To reduce soil erosion, one of the most important issues is to quantify the amount of erosion and sediment so that planners can make correct decisions in line with the integrated management of watersheds.

Evaluation of a Refined Surface Cover Subfactor for Use in RUSLE [PDF]
Concern for nonpoint source pollution from rangelands has increased the need to monitor and predict amounts of soil erosion that may enter streams from adjacent rangelands. This study was undertaken to evaluate a refined surface cover subfactor (RSC) developed for the revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE) to simulate soil loss from rangelands

Applying RUSLE 2.0 to burned forest lands: An appraisal [PDF]
Forestlands disturbed by wildfire commonly constitute major and long-lasting sources of sediment that degrade water quality and cause siltation. Postfire restoration of the resistance to erosion of the forest soil is largely controlled by the rate of regrowth of vegetation and may take several years to return to prefire levels, particularly in areas of

Comparison of long-term field-measured and RUSLE-based modelled soil loss in Switzerland [PDF]
Long-term field measurements to asses model-based soil erosion predictions by water are rare. We have compared field measurements based on erosion assessment surveys from a 10-year monitoring process with spatial-explicit model predictions with the ...

Soil erosion is one of the major environmental issues in Ethiopia. In highlands, though the topography is rugged; settlements have increased in recent years even if cultivation is generally practiced on steep landforms.

Soil erosion in an avalanche release site (Valle d'Aosta: Italy): towards a winter factor for RUSLE in the Alps [PDF]
Soil erosion in Alpine areas is mainly related to extreme topographic and weather conditions. Although different methods of assessing soil erosion exist, the knowledge of erosive forces of the snow cover needs more investigation in order to allow soil ...

Water erosion is the principal degradation process of tropical soils, and its effects can be measured by modeling techniques. Erosion models provide a diagnosis of the soil loss intensity and can support the planning of soil conservation practices ...
