Impact of land use/land cover changes on soil erosion risk in upper Mile River sub-watershed, North Eastern highlands of Ethiopia
ABSTRACTUnsustainable management of land resources aggravates land degradation. An accurate assessment of soil erosion is needed to reduce the problem of soil loss in highly fragile mountainous areas. Modeling the impact of LULCC on soil erosion is a vital process for watershed management planning....
