Conversion of the universal soil loss equation to SI metric units

Journal of Soil and Water Conservation, 1981
: The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is widely used to estimate erosion in the United States and foreign countries. With foreign application of the USLE and adoption of the International System of Units (SI) in the United States, conversion of the ...

Revised Slope Length Factor for the Universal Soil Loss Equation

Transactions of the ASAE, 1989
ABSTRACT An analysis based on theoretical considerations and data interpretation was used in developing revised relationships for the slope length exponent for the Universal Soil Loss Equation. The analysis was based on the ratio of rill to interrill erosion and resulted in a general relationship between the slope length exponent and slope steepness ...

Estimation of soil erosion potential using Universal Soil Loss Equation

Journal of the Indian Society of Remote Sensing, 2002
Sediment yield from a catchment can be simulated using lumped and distributed models. However, for field applications, a reliable and simple method is required. The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is an empirical procedure developed by Wischmeier and Smith in 1965 from statistical analysis of erosion data from a large number of plot studies under ...

Error Assessment in the Universal Soil Loss Equation

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1993
Abstract Although nearly three decades of widespread use have confirmed the reliability of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE), very little work has been done to assess the error associated with it. This study was conducted to develop a set of statistics that would measure the performance of the USLE ...
