Universal Soil Loss Equation
（重定向自USLE）
The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is a widely used mathematical model that describes soil erosion processes.
Erosion models play critical roles in soil and water resource conservation and nonpoint source pollution assessments, including: sediment load assessment and inventory, conservation planning and design for sediment control, and for the advancement of scientific understanding. The USLE or one of its derivatives are main models used by United States government agencies to measure water erosion.
