Climate change impact on soil erosion in sub-tropical environment : application of empirical and semi-empirical models

Climate change impact on soil erosion in sub-tropical environment : application of empirical and semi-empirical models / Subodh Chandra Pal, Rabin Chakrabortty.

This work focuses on the potential impact of climate change on soil erosion in a monsoon-dominated sub-tropical region. Water-induced soil erosion due to extreme rainfall during the monsoon period is a major problem worldwide, from different environmental and socio-economic perspectives. This study...
