Estimation of Soil Loss Changes Using Multi-temporal Remotely-Sensed Imageries and GIS data

The purpose of this study is to estimate temporal soil loss change according to long-term land cover changes using GIS and RS. Revised USLE(Universal Soil Loss Equation) factors were made by using point rainfall data, DEM(Digital Elevation Model), soil map and land cover map. Past two decades land cover changes were traced by using Landsat MSS and TM data. Soil loss in 2000 increased $6.3\;kg/m^{2}/yr$ compared with that in 1983. This was mainly caused by the increased upland area.
