Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Degradation Risk Prediction Integrating RUSLE with Geo-information Techniques, the Case of Northern Shaanxi Province in ChinaMushtak T. Jabbar, Xiaoling ChenThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with RS, GIS and GPS techniques to quantify soil erosion risk and the northern part of Shaanxi province in China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. The rating values served as inputs into a modified Revised … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,050 accessesView PDFCite
