A framework for dynamic assessment of soil erosion and detection of driving factors in alpine grassland ecosystems using the RUSLE-InVEST (SDR) model and Geodetector: A case study... by Hucheng Li, Jianjun Chen, Ming Ling, Zizhen Chen, Yanping Lan, Qinyi Huang, Xinhong Li, Haotian You, Feng Wang, Xiaowen Han, Guoqing Zhou

“…The results indicated that: (1) From 2000 to 2020, the soil erosion intensity in the SRYR exhibited an overall declining trend, despite some fluctuations, with areas of slight erosion (< 5 t/(hm2·a)) accounting for over 78 % of the region; (2) The multi-year average SDR was below 15 %, with erosion-prone areas primarily located in the central region of the SRYR and topographically complex edge regions; (3) The areas where soil erosion had significantly improved were mainly located in the western half of the SRYR. It is expected that future soil erosion conditions will continue to follow historical trends, with approximately 30 % of the area possibly continuing to improve; (4) The interaction of vegetation cover, slope, and temperature was the main natural factor affecting the interannual variation of soil erosion rates, while the impact of rainfall remained relatively stable. …”
