Assessment of annual soil loss and soil erosion susceptibility in a tropical sub-basin of the Western Ghats, Southern India using RUSLE and AHP

The Western Ghats (WG) of southern India represent a geomorphologically sensitive terrain where soil erosion and landslides constitute major geohazards. The Chittar sub-basin (CSB) of the Achankovil River Basin (ARB) was selected for investigation owing to its steep slopes, high-intensity rainfall, and increasing anthr...

Spatial assessment of soil erosion using GIS-integrated RUSLE in the Wolaita zone, Ethiopia

Soil requires focused management to ensure long-term productivity and ecological balance. The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) is an effective empirical model that, when combined with Remote Sensing (RS) techniques and Geographical Information Systems (GIS), enables the analysis of annual soil loss by integ...

Spatial Variation in Soil Erosion and Potential Pattern of Soil Nutrient Loss in the Southeastern Low Mountains and Hills of the Daxing’anling Mountains

Soil erosion and the nutrient loss it causes are core issues threatening sustainable land use in arid and semi-arid regions. In this study, our aim was to reveal the spatiotemporal differentiation characteristics of soil erosion and soil nutrients in an ecologically fragile area of eastern Inner Mongolia—Tuquan County...
