The RUSLE model was used to model the main factors involved in the erosion phenomenon. The Boussellam watershed covers an area of 4,151 Km2, with an elongated shape and low relief. It is characterized by an altitude ranging from 189 m to 1757 m, with an average of 931 m, and a slope oscillating between 0 and 266%, with an average of 18%. The results show that the erosivity factor R averages 68 (MJ.mm\/ha.h.yr), with a maximum value of 140 (MJ.mm\/ha.h.yr). The soil erodibility factor K ranges from 0.04 to 0.21, with an average of 0.11 (t.h.ha)\/(MJ.ha.mm). The topographical factor LS ranges from 0 to 216, with an average of 16. The average value of the P factor is 0.77, and that of the C factor is 0.076.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Merzouk Belkacem\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 6207789776\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9786207789771\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Our Knowledge Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.13d","brand":"Merzouk Belkacem","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446469144831,"sku":"9786207789771","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_983a4358-ba04-4be3-a27a-61f309de45e2.jpg?v=1777224842","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/study-of-soil-erosion-trends-merzouk-belkacem-9786207789771","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
