Abstract

Federally, the evaluated potential of soil loss risk in national reports in the past and ways to adapt to be proactive in preventing accelerated soil loss on rangelands has been incomplete. The areas where it is difficult to measure due to the complexities of multiple interactions (splash, sheet and rill formation, landscape dominated by wind and water processes, presence of iron oxide nodes, etc.) is only a small fraction.
