Experimental study on in-situ simulation of rainfall-induced soil erosion in forest lands converted to cash crop areas in Dabie Mountains. by Gao Li, Tao Yang, Rui Chen, Haogang Dong, Feng Wu, Qinghua Zhan, Jinyan Huang, Minxuan Luo, Li Wang

“…The findings underscore that rainfall prompts a swift surge in surface soil moisture, destabilizing the soil surface and culminating in slope erosion; thus, the rate of change in surface soil moisture content emerges as a pivotal indicator for predicting slope soil erosion. Furthermore, within the bounds of rainfall infiltration, preceding drought conditions followed by intense rainfall exacerbate soil erosion accumulation, highlighting the significance of initial soil moisture content as a critical factor. …”
