What is it about?

To estimate the soil erosion risk at river basin scale is necessary to analyze how to identify the factors and the influence thereof on the erosion processes.

Perspectives

In the Tropical Mountain Forest the land cover (C-factor) was identified as the principal factor for estimate soil erosion risk to the watershed scale... When land-cover management is poor, the typical assumption that R and LS are the most important factors in soil erosion risk estimation may not hold true.
