Splash erosion model is adopted from EUROSEM model developed by Morgan (2001). Rill/interill erosion model is adoped from Modified ANSWERS model by Park et al.(1982) Code developed by J. Jeong and N. Kannan, BRC.
Fraction of sand Soil detachability values adopted from EUROSEM User Guide (Table 1) canopy cover based on leaf area index canopy cover is assumed to be 100% if LAI>=1 Rainfall kinetic energy generated by direct throughfall (J/m^2/mm) Rainfall kinetic energy generated by leaf drainage (J/m^2) Depth of rainfall total kinetic energy by rainfall (J/m^2) total soil detachment by raindrop impact Impervious area of HRU maximum water depth that allows splash erosion Overland flow erosion cover and management factor used in usle equation (ysed.f) specific weight of water at 5 centigrate =9807N/m3 Impervious area of HRU
