The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) estimates average annual soil loss. The USLE is an empirically based equation, and computes sheet and rill erosion as follows: A=RKLSCP where K stands for
The K factor in the Universal Soil Loss Equation measures the soil’s inherent susceptibility to erosion, influenced by its texture, structure, permeability, and organic matter. In this equation A is computed soil loss, R is the rainfall-runoff erosivity factor, L is the slope length factor, S is the slope steepness factor, C is a cover management factor, and P is a supporting practices factor.
