  2. Erodibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erodibility

    Soil erodibility is a lumped parameter that represents an integrated annual value of the soil profile reaction to the process of soil detachment and transport by raindrops and surface flow. [1] The most commonly used model for predicting soil loss from water erosion is the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) (also known as the K-factor ...

  3. Erosion index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erosion_index

    The erosion index (EI, also called the erodibility index) is created by dividing potential erosion (from all sources except gully erosion) by the T value, which is the rate of soil erosion above which long term productivity may be adversely affected.

  4. Universal Soil Loss Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Soil_Loss_Equation

    A simpler method to predict K was presented by Wischmeier et al. [7] which includes the particle size of the soil, organic matter content, soil structure and profile permeability. The soil erodibility factor K can be approximated from a nomograph if this information is known. The LS factors can easily be determined from a slope effect chart by ...

  5. Wind erosion equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_erosion_equation

    Research indicates that soil movement commences when wind speeds surpass a critical threshold and the rate of erosion aligns with the cube of the friction velocity. Friction velocity, denoted as U ∗ {\textstyle U_{*}} , is a meteorological term for wind speed at the Earth's surface and can be quantified using the equation:

  6. Hole erosion test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_erosion_test

    The numerical measure of soil erodibility can be used to predict how quickly this erosion will progress, and it can be found as an input in various computer simulations for dam failure. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Procedure

  7. Tillage erosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tillage_Erosion

    Conceptually, the process of tillage erosion (E Ti) can be described as a function of tillage erosivity (ET) and landscape erodibility (EL): [9]. E Ti = f(ET, EL) . Tillage erosivity (ET) is defined as the propensity of a tillage operation, or a sequence of operations, to erode soil and is affected by the design and operation of the tillage implement (e.g., the size, arrangement and shape of ...
