Erosion spatial distribution mapping and sediment yield estimation using RUSLE and Arc GIS of Ayigebire watershed, North Shewa zone of Amhara region, Ethiopia
Soil erosion and sedimentation are the major threats to Ethiopia’s economy by impacting the productivity of agricultural land and shortening the life of dams. Ayigebire watershed was one of the most erosion-susceptible watersheds in Menz Gera district of Ethiopia. At the outlet, there was a soil dam...
