1. Soil erosion by water : Estimating soil loss and sediment yield in the southern half of Sweden by using the Revised Universal Soil Loss (RUSLE) model
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiSammanfattning : Soil erosion has been recognized as an increasing threat to the environment and humans worldwide as anthropogenic activities have accelerated the soil degradation rate. In Sweden, it is estimated that 15% of the arable land is affected by soil erosion, and studies have shown that fields in the south of Sweden lose a substantial amount of soil under certain weather conditions.

2. Extremväders påverkan på jorderosion : En GIS-modellering över Byälvens avrinningsområde
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : When the climate change contributes to a greater amount of extreme weather that does also affect the soil erosion and the number of areas that are being affected by the soil erosion. The areas affected by the soil erosion do often suffers from economic loss because of the loss in agricultural land caused by the soil erosion. LÄS MER
3. Soil Erosion estimation for the Göta Älv river using remote sensing, GIS and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model
Magister-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiSammanfattning : According to previous studies, the study area of Göta Älv river has high risk of landslides along the river banks due to the water flow. Soil erosion can affect the increase of the landslides in an area with unstable soils caused by the increase rainfall. LÄS MER
4. Land cover change and its influence on soil erosion in the Mara region, Tanzania : using satellite remote sensing and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) to map land degradation between 1986 and 2013
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Sub-Saharan Africa suffers from land degradation, depletion of natural resources and rural poverty. In the Lake Victoria Basin, where large parts of the population are small scale farmers, people are facing such issues coupled with altered climatic conditions. LÄS MER
5. GIS-based time series study of soil erosion risk using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model in a micro-catchment on Mount Elgon, Uganda
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Land degradation has already been treated as one of the most serious problem all around the world. This study is a GIS-based time series study which devotes to calculate annual soil loss value, seek for soil erosion trends linked with precipitation and land use in Manafwa micro-catchment, Mount Elgon region, Uganda.
