The objective of this study was to assess assessment of soil erosion pattern and dynamic change trend of spatial distribution in erosion status between 1990 and 2010 and obtained the conservation priority map in the Koshi basin area using GIS and remote sensing. To develop soil erosion pattern revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE) were adopted in ArcGIS environment where is the rainfall erosivity, soil erodibility, slope length factor, crop management factor and support practice factors were used a primary parameters. This study result the annual total erosion 4,35,996 ton/ha/yr in 2010. Development of baseline information for environmental management. http://rds.icimod.org:8080/geonetwork/srv/eng/resources.get?uuid=3deb2b2f-89c6-4c74-a189-f1af7f48d02d&fname=soil_erosion_koshi_s.png thumbnail png http://rds.icimod.org:8080/geonetwork/srv/eng/resources.get?uuid=3deb2b2f-89c6-4c74-a189-f1af7f48d02d&fname=soil_erosion_koshi.jpg large_thumbnail jpg Soil Loss Erosion Basin Koshi The content of this website can be accessed, printed and downloaded in an unaltered form (altered including being stretched, compressed, coloured or altered in any way so as to distort content from its original proportions or format) with copyright acknowledged, on a temporary basis for personal study that is not for a direct or indirect commercial use and any non-commercial use.
