Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive method for predicting sheet and rill erosion on forest land, bringing together many factors that affect erosion caused by rainfall and runoff. The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) was developed for agriculture and is modified here to better predict erosion on forest land. The author provides a step-by-step procedure for evaluating nine subfactors that influence erosion, which can be used to estimate erosion for various practices or to plan forestry practices that will minimize erosion. This book will be valuable for foresters, land managers, and anyone interested in understanding and controlling erosion on forest land. It provides a methodology for estimating sheet and rill erosion, and for understanding the factors that affect erosion, which can be used to make informed decisions about land management practices. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
