Assessment of soil erosion and sediment transport index in the Awash River Basin, Ethiopia: an application of the USLE model and GIS techniques

Abstract In the fight against soil erosion, Ethiopia has a formidable obstacle. The Awash River Basin issue is addressed in this paper. Soil loss and the sediment transport index (STI) in the Awash River Basin were predicted using GIS and the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) Model. Using the Univ...
