Erosive Potential in Sub-basins of the Lower Itapecuru River in the State of Maranhão, Northeastern Brazil (Potencial erosivo das sub-bacias hidrográficas do Baixo Curso do Rio Itapecuru, Estado do Maranhão, Nordeste do Brasil)

Erosive Potential in Sub-basins of the Lower Itapecuru River in the State of Maranhão, Northeastern Brazil (Potencial erosivo das sub-bacias hidrográficas do Baixo Curso do Rio Itapecuru, Estado do Maranhão, Nordeste do Brasil)

The aim of the present study was to estimate the loss of soil due to sheet erosion in ten sub-basins (SWDs) located in the lower course of the Itapecuru River based on different scenarios of land use and coverage in the years 2005, 2010 and 2015. For such, the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE). An...
