USLE K-Factor Method Selection for a Tropical Catchment

USLE K-Factor Method Selection for a Tropical Catchment

The use of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and the Sediment Delivery Ratio (SDR) facilitates sediment yield (SY) estimates in watersheds. However, the soil loss predictions are frequently unrealistic because of the methods used to estimate the USLE’s factors. Here, we evaluated the...
