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

Estimation of the annual rainfall erosivity index based on hourly rainfall data in a tropical region
Soil and Water Research, 2021 The annual mean rainfall erosivity (R) indicates the potential soil loss caused by the precipitation and runoff and is used to predict the soil loss from agricultural hillslopes. R is calculated from rainfall stations with continuously recording rainfall

A nonparametric/parametric analysis of the Universal Soil Loss Equation [PDF]
CATENA, 2003 Due to its modest data demands and transparent model structure, the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) remains the most popular tool for water erosion hazard assessment. However, the model has several shortcomings, two of which are likely to have prominent implications for the model results. First, the mathematical form of the USLE, the multiplication
