RUSLE Model Description and Database Sensitivity
Journal of Environmental Quality, 1993AbstractWater quality modeling generally requires estimates of the amount of eroded material entering water courses. This information is necessary because sediment often transports adsorbed chemicals. Numerous models have been developed to assist with assessment of this problem.

An overview of soil erosion modelling compatible with RUSLE approach
Rendiconti Lincei, 2012Different approaches were used to model soil losses in the Sele River basin (southern Italy) characterized by data scarcity. The suitability of models interpolating different sources of data was evaluated with the aim to suggest similar methodologies in other regions where data availability is not sufficient to use the more complex and detailed models.

An improved RUSLE/SDR model for the evaluation of soil erosion
Environmental Earth Sciences, 2018The accurate assessment of soil erosion is key to assess environmental parameters, such as the reduction in soil fertility, the increase in flood risk, the loss of nutrients, and degradation of water quality. In this study, we developed a methodology using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with the sediment delivery ratio (SDR) to ...

The Influence of Elevation Data Generalization on the Accuracy of the RUSLE Model
2017 Baltic Geodetic Congress (BGC Geomatics), 2017Precision and reliability of water erosion intensity measurements depend on a number of factors, such as the accuracy of input data, used erosion model, and tools applied to computations. The article shows an assessment of the influence of elevation data accuracy on the components' values in the RUSLE model.

An improved vegetation cover and management factor for RUSLE model in prediction of soil erosion
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021Soil erosion and runoff of cultivated land will cause farmland to be degraded and the downstream to be contaminated, which has aroused extensive attention worldwide. The conventional soil loss prediction model revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE) is capable of more significantly simulating and predicting the amount of soil loss, but this model ...

Adding a temporal dimension to the RUSLE model: Application to the Portuguese west coast
2012 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2012Soil erosion by water is one of the main sources of sediment supply to the coastal zone and its quantification is a major issue in coastal management. The intensity of sediment delivery to the coast can be assessed by the RUSLE model, which is able to account the time-variability of the primary variables.

Application of a RUSLE-based soil erosion modelling on Mauritius Island
Soil Research, 2013Soil erosion by water is one of the most important natural resources management problems in the world. The damages it causes on-site are soil loss, breakdown of soil structure, and decline in organic matter content, nutrient content, fertility, and infiltration rate.

Variance based sensitivity analysis of the RUSLE model in the E.U. parameter space
2020<p>Soil degradation through erosion is a major issue on a global scale, especially as the pressure on soils increases with increasing population, changing diets, and increase in land use changes. Measurements are plot specific and expensive, so most of the erosion assessment are done through modelling.

Application of experimental soil erosion models (USLE, RUSLE) in Jordan: A review
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2017In most of the existing models designed for the soil erosion experiment are moderately simplistic, which consistently, have been extensively practiced in many parts of the world. In reality, within the content of this study, the practical occurrences of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and that of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE)
