Soil erosion and sediment delivery in a mountain catchment under scenarios of land use change using a spatially distributed numerical model

Soil erosion and sediment yield are strongly affected by land use/land cover (LULC). Spatially distributed erosion models are of great interest to assess the expected effect of LULC changes on soil erosion and sediment yield. However, they can only be applied if spatially distributed data is availab...
