ESTIMATION OF SOIL LOSSES BY THE IMPROVED TILLAGE HOMOGENIZATION MODEL AND RUSLE MODEL [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020 Soil erosion by water is a major environmental problem in the Mediterranean areas. It results in land degradation and soil losses, decreases soil structural stability, and increases soil erodibility.

Improving the global applicability of the RUSLE model – adjustment of the topographical and rainfall erosivity factors [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2015 Large uncertainties exist in estimated rates and the extent of soil erosion by surface runoff on a global scale. This limits our understanding of the global impact that soil erosion might have on agriculture and climate.

Geoderma, 2023 The slope length and slope steepness factor (LS-factor) formula in the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) has a considerable level of uncertainty due to the existence of multiple methods. In this study, four commonly used formulas for the slope

Journal of Hydrology, 2015 RUSLE is one of the most widely used soil erosion model worldwide. However, some of the input parameters of RUSLE may require extensive field and laboratory studies, and therefore in most of the cases these parameters are estimated according to some alternative approaches. In this context, cover-management factor (C) has significant importance since it

Development of an erosion model for Langat River Basin, Malaysia, adapting GIS and RS in RUSLE
Applied Water Science, 2020 This study is aimed to predict potential soil erosion in the Langat River Basin, Malaysia by integrating Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographical Information System (GIS) with the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model. In RUSLE model, parameters

Targeting phosphorus loss with carbon farming practices? Results from an on-farm study. [PDF]
J Environ QualAbstract Agricultural soils lose P to waterbodies and C to the atmosphere. Reversing the C trend requires change in management (carbon farming), but what is the effect of carbon farming practices on P transport from soils to waterbodies? This was empirically studied by analyzing the P loss risks from 20 farms participating in a 5‐year on‐farm carbon ...

Estimation of Cadmium Contamination in Different Restoration Scenarios by RUSLE Model
Environment and Natural Resources Journal, 2020 The Mae Tao watershed of Thailand faced cadmium (Cd) contamination problems from zinc mining for a long time until the mining area was closed to decrease the level of Cd concentration.
