ABSTRACT The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) is the most widely used
global soil erosion model. The poor performance of the RUSLE is solely dependent on the …

A preliminary conceptual framework is proposed for the estimation of the costs of
desertification. This framework consists of assessment of the extent and severity of …

Background Soil erosion causes topsoil loss, which decreases fertility in agricultural land.
Spatial estimation of soil erosion essential for an agriculture-dependent country like Nepal …

As a form of environmental degradation, soil degradation directly or indirectly affects many
lives through decreased agricultural yields, increased flooding and habitat loss. Soil loss …

Soil erosion is a major environmental and economic concern affecting all continents around
the world. Soil loss facilitates land degradation, threatening both agricultural and natural …

Soil erosion is a major environmental problem that affects land and w ater resources. It has
many negative implications that lead to deforestation, poor agricultural practices, loss of soil …

Soil erosion is the main driver of land degradation in Ethiopia, and in the whole region of
East Africa. This study was conducted at the Northeast Wollega in West Ethiopia to estimate …

With the development of global climate and environmental research, geospatial models are
becoming more comprehensive and complex and, therefore require more and more input …

Soil erosion is a key process to understand the land degradation, and modelling of soil
erosion will help to understand the process and to foresee its impacts. The applicability of …

The USLE‐M and the USLE‐MM estimate event plot soil loss. In both models, the erosivity
term is given by the runoff coefficient, QR, times the single‐storm erosion index, EI30. In the …
