Spatial Variability of Soil Erodibility at the Rhirane Catchment Using Geostatistical Analysis
Soil Systems, 2023 Soil erodibility is one of the most crucial factors used to estimate soil erosion by applying modeling techniques. Soil data from soil maps are commonly used to create maps of soil erodibility for soil conservation planning.

Soil erodibility in Europe: a high-resolution dataset based on LUCAS [PDF]
, 2014 The greatest obstacle to soil erosion modelling at larger spatial scales is the lack of data on soil characteristics. One key parameter for modelling soil erosion is the soil erodibility, expressed as the K-factor in the widely used soil erosion model ...

Erodibility and loss of marly drived soils
EURASIAN JOURNAL OF SOIL SCIENCE (EJSS), 2015 Considering to high distribution of the marly lands in west Azerbaijan province and high sediment yield of such lands, in this research, the relation among the form and the rate of erosion on marls with their erodibility properties were studied. Therefore, marly regions of province with the special properties were recognized and the soils samples were ...

Modeling the dynamics of soil erosion and size-selective sediment transport over nonuniform topography in flume-scale experiments [PDF]
, 2011 Soil erosion and the associated nutrient fluxes can lead to severe degradation of surface waters. Given that both sediment transport and nutrient sorption are size selective, it is important to predict the particle size distribution (PSD) as well as the ...

Soil erosion modelling at European scale by using high resolution input layers [PDF]
, 2015 Soil erosion by water is one of the most widespread forms of soil degradation. Since soil erosion is difficult to measure at large scales, soil erosion models are a crucial estimation tool at regional, national and European levels. The high heterogeneity
