Growing crops may cause, in addition to water, wind and tillage erosion, significant soil losses at harvesting time. During the harvest, earth adhering to the crop, soil clods and rock fragments are removed from the field together with crops such as fodder and sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), carrot (

The objectives of this study are to observe soil, nitrogen and phosphorus losses under di!erent amounts of fertilizer during the typhoon of 20 June 1997, and to evaluate the e!ects of soil and nutrient losses associated with the typhoon on the annual loads. Cumulative rainfall of 143)5 mm was record
Soil erosion rates are a key factor for understanding changes in soil organic carbon. 137 Cesium was used to estimate erosion rates in long-term cropping experiments in eastern Oregon. Based on the 137 Cs measurements, RUSLE or EPIC estimates, and visual observations there is little evidence of wate
## Abstract Soil erosion is an important economic and environmental concern throughout the world. In order to assess soil erosion risk and conserve water and soil resources, soil erosion modeling at the watershed scale is urgently needed. This study integrated the Modified Universal Soil Loss Equat
