Brief description

The Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) estimates the annual soil loss that is due to erosion using a factor-based approach with rainfall, soil erodibility, slope length, slope steepness and cover management and conservation practices as inputs. The collection is (i) a set of maps that represent the RUSLE factors, (ii) a map of the RUSLE estimates of soil erosion in Australia and (iii) a map of the uncertainty in the estimates of erosion.
