Soil loss estimated by means of the RUSLE model in a subtropical climate watershed [PDF]
ABSTRACT Erosion process occurs naturally, shaping the Earth’s surface. Soil loss can cause harmful effects to the environment when intensive anthropic activities occur. Mathematical models have been used as effective and less costly alternatives for identifying sites highly prone to soil loss, especially at the watershed scale.

Application of RUSLE Model on Global Soil Erosion Estimate
Soil erosion is one of the most serious environmental problems commonly in over the world, which is caused by both natural and human factors. It is possible to investigate the global issue on soil erosion with the development of global data sets. This research estimated global soil erosion by the RUSLE model with use of a comprehensive global data set.

Estimation of soil erosion by the "Rusle" model of the Nura river basin
Over the past few decades, soil erosion has affected natural resources and agricultural production around the world. Primary soil erosion is the local impact of the influence on the decline in soil fertility and the deterioration of the quality of soil resources, while water pollution and sedimentary residues are off — site.
