The Universal Soil Loss Equation was developed to predict the annual soil loss from field-size small areas. This equation does not compute the sediment yield from the watershed, directly. To compute the sediment yield by use of USLE, the computed soil loss using USLE is multiplied with the delivery ratio of watershed. Since, USLE predicts […]

In this article we will discuss about universal soil loss equation used to estimate soil loss. The water erosion is a complex process. It involves inter-relationships between several factors. Few of them influence the potential of rainfall and runoff to detach and transport the soil particles from soil mass. And few are that, which affect […]
Formulation of SLEMSA Model: 4 Phases | Soil Management
Article shared by :
To formulate SLEMSA model, Elwell divided the development programme in following four distinct phases: 1. Physical System 2. Control Variables 3. Sub-Models 4. Main Model (Z). Phase # 1. Physical System: The physical system to affect the soil loss in field involves a large number of causative factors of varying importance; they interact in a […]
