Comprehensive assessment of soil erosion risk for better land use planning in river basins: Case study of the Upper Blue Nile River
文摘

Soil erosion is the most important land degradation problem in the Blue Nile basin.

A new methodological framework was applied to prioritize erosion-prone areas.

The basin experiences high soil loss rates with large spatial variability.

Erosion risks are strongly linked to population density.

Targeting 77.3% of erosion-prone areas could reduce the basin's soil loss by ca. 52%.
