Establishing soil loss tolerance: an overview
Soil loss tolerance is a criterion for establishing if a soil is potentially subjected to erosion risk, productivity loss and if a river presents downstream over-sedimentation or other off-site effects are present at basin scale.

Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE)-Predicted Soil Loss for Harvesting Regimes in Appalachian Hardwoods [PDF]
Abstract Soil erosion from forest harvesting is a major environmental concern. While there has been research comparing soil erosion on clearcut regeneration harvests with that on uncut forests, there has been little focus on the differences among common silvicultural harvests.

The slope length factor is one of the parameters of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and is sometimes calculated based on a digital elevation model (DEM).

Soil Erosion: A Review of Models and Applications [PDF]
Soil erosion is a global environmental problem influenced by both natural and human factors. Modeling provides a quantitative and consistent approach to estimate soil erosion and sediment yield under a wide range of conditions, and is needed to guide the

ACOMPARISON OF THE R-FACTOR IN THE UNIVERSAL SOIL LOSS EQUATION AND REVISED UNIVERSAL SOIL LOSS EQUATION [PDF]
The R-factor in the Universal Soil Loss Equation /Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE/RUSLE)characterizes the climatic influence on the average rate of soil loss. The way in which the R-factor was calculated forRUSLE differs from that for the USLE.

Monthly RUSLE soil erosion risk of Swiss grasslands
This study presents the first mapping of soil erosion risk modelling based on the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) at a sub-annual (monthly) temporal resolution and national scale (100 m spatial resolution).

Adaptation and application of the erosion potential method for tropical soils1
The water erosion process has a considerable negative effect on tropical soils, causes soil losses from arable land and reduces the capacity to support surrounding ecosystems.
