Mapping soil erodibility over India

Catena, 2023
Soil erosion is a major environmental problem worldwide, and almost half of India’s total geographical area is susceptible to it. The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) has been widely used globally to estimate soil erosion, and Soil erodibility factor, denoted by K-factor, is an essential component of RUSLE.

Climate effects on soil erodibility

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2007
AbstractSoil erodibility data, calculated using measured soil loss from standard runoff plots, collected over at least one year and applying the standard requirements for calculating the soil erodibility factor (K) of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE), have been analysed to investigate whether climate affects the susceptibility of soils to water ...

Soil erodibility and its estimation for agricultural soils in China [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Arid Environments, 2008
Soil erodibility (the K factor in the Universal Soil Loss Equation, USLE) is an important index to measure soil susceptibility to water erosion, and an essential parameter needed for soil erosion prediction.

SOIL ERODIBILITY, FALL AND SPRING

Canadian Journal of Soil Science, 1966
In a 7-year study of eight summerfallow treatments, the percentage of erodible soil (soil particles < 0.84 mm in diameter) at the completion of tillage in the fall, and prior to preseeding tillage the following spring, was significantly influenced by the summerfallow method.

Temporal Changes in Soil Erodibility

Soil Erosion, 2013
Soil erodibility has been considered to depend on soil permanent properties (e.g., texture and organic matter content). In this presentation the dependence of interrill and rill erodibility on prewetting rate (PWR) and aging, respectively, is discussed. Slow wetting of soils reduces seal formation, runoff, and interrill erosion.

Restoration of Eroded and Degraded Soils

2010
Restoration refers to the process of repairing and returning damaged or degraded soils (e.g., eroded agricultural soils, mined soils) to a condition similar to the predegradation level of capability for supporting plant growth and maintaining environmental quality. Degradation, which broadly refers to decline in soil’s capacity for a specific use (e.g.,
