The USLE soil erodibility nomograph revisited
The nomograph by Wischmeier et al. (1971) for calculating the K-factor in the USLE was extremely useful when there was low access to calculators. However, the generalised calculation of this factor requires the development of analytic procedures. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the nomograph and its underlying equation, which is applicable ...

A reliable prediction of event soil loss at the plot scale can be obtained by Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE)-type models. For the Sparacia site (South Italy), the USLE-MB model was recently developed, in which the effect of the erosive agent is ...

This report describes the results from the required run in addition to the five optional runs for the MUC-3 task. One purpose of the optional runs is to investigate the precision-recall tradeoff. Two of the optional runs (options 1 and 4) were also submitted to NOSC, making up a total of three official runs.

Sedimentation Analysis in the Tambakboyo Retention Basin Using the USLE Method and Eco Sounder Measurements to Support the Optimization of Water Availability [PDF]
The Tambakboyo Dam has been operated for more than 10 years, resulting in increased sedimentation and reduced storage capacity from 400,000 m3 to 300,285 m3.
