- Abstract:
-
Huangshui River Basin (Xi’ning segment) was chosen as study area. In accordance with the geographical and ecological characteristics, rainfall erosivity, slope, soil erodibility, vegetation coverage were selected as indicators of erosion risk evaluation of soil erosion.A map of single-factor erosion risk evaluation was made with supports of ArcGIS, moreover, a comprehensive evaluation of soil erosion risk was conducted based on ArcGIS spatial overlay analysis. The results show moderate land high risk areas of soil erosion within the study area accounted for 71.4%; mild risk areas and no risk area accounted for 1.37% and 27.08%, respectively. Very high risk region accounted for only 0.15%. However, the relatively high risk area of soil erosion mainly distributed in the larger population density area, and mainly around the Xi’ning City and Huangshui valley area.
