Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation, Version 2 (RUSLE2)

<p>RUSLE2 is a program used to evaluate potential erosion rates at specific sites as well as guide conservation and erosion control planning. It also provides economic information about fuel use and costs for specific crop management systems. The RUSLE2 site also supplies data files from their site that work together in these categories: Crop Management Zone, Climate, and Soil. </p> <p>RUSLE2 uses factors based on climate, soil erodibility, topography, cover management and support practices to compute soil erosion. Conservation planning concepts must be understood and implemented into the RUSLE2 program in order for this program to be used effectively.</p> <div><br>Resources in this dataset:</div><br><ul><li><p>Resource Title: RUSLE2 software download.</p> <p>File Name: RUSLE2_Program_File, url: <a href="http://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/RUSLE2_Program_File" target="_blank">http://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/RUSLE2_Program_File</a> </p><p>RUSLE2 download files: <a href="http://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/RUSLE2_Program_File" target="_blank">http://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/RUSLE2_Program_File</a> Related data files include: NCRS Master Database - download: <a href="https://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/NRCS_Base_Database/" target="_blank">https://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/NRCS_Base_Database/</a> NCRS Climate Data - download: <a href="https://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/Climate_data/" target="_blank">https://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/Climate_data/</a> Crop Management Templates, Crop Management Zone Maps Data Files: <a href="https://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/Crop_Management_Templates/" target="_blank">https://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/RUSLE2_ftp/Crop_Management_Templates/</a> Soils data - files by state: https://fargo.nserl.purdue.edu/rusle2_dataweb/NRCS_Soils_Data_Files.htm</p></li></ul>
