Improving the global applicability of the RUSLE model – adjustment of the topographical and rainfall erosivity factors
Large uncertainties exist in estimated rates and the extent of soil erosion by surface runoff on a global scale. This limits our understanding of the global impact that soil erosion might have on agriculture and climate. The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model is, due to its simple st...
