ESTIMATION OF SLOPE LENGTH FACTOR (L) AND SLOPE STEEPNESS FACTOR (S) OF RUSLE EQUATION IN THE EUPHRATES RIVER WATERSHED BY GIS MODELING

ESTIMATION OF SLOPE LENGTH FACTOR (L) AND SLOPE STEEPNESS FACTOR (S) OF RUSLE EQUATION IN THE EUPHRATES RIVER WATERSHED BY GIS MODELING

Specific effects of topography over any area watershed erosion are estimated through the LS factor as the product of slope length L and slope steepness factor S using RUSLE equation. The LS factor map of Euphrates watershed was derived from the raw Digital Elevation Model (DEM) by using of ArcMap 10...
