About this document

Soil Erosion and Sediment Yield Analysis by Abdul Mueed is a document available to read on EtoBox.

1. A certain soil loses 20 tons/acre annually through erosion. This equals an erosion rate of 0.016 cubic feet/square mile annually. It would take 62.5 years to erode 1 inch at the original rate, and 25 years at the reduced rate of 4 tons/acre/year. 2. Given a soil erodibility of 0.32, 5% slope, and 220 foot slope length with contour planting, the maximum possible crop factor for this field in S.W. Minnesota is 4 tons/acre. 3. For a watershed with K=0.25, 5% slope, 150 foot slope length, P=0.5, C=0.4,
