Soil Loss Analysis of an Eastern Kentucky Watershed Utilizing the Universal Soil Loss Equation

open access: yesEnvironments, 2022
Soil erosion is the displacement of soil’s upper layer(s) triggered by a variation in topography, land use and soil types, and anthropogenic activities. This study selected the Marrowbone Creek-Russel Fork watershed in eastern Kentucky to estimate the mean annual soil loss over eight years (from 2013 to 2020) utilizing the Universal Soil Loss Equation (

Evaluation of chemical amendments to control phosphorus losses from dairy slurry

open access: yes, 2011
peer-reviewedLand application of dairy slurry can result in incidental losses of phosphorus (P) to runoff in addition to increased loss of P from soil as a result of a buildup in soil test P (STP). An agitator test was used to identify the most effective
