In order to comprehensively understand the effect of rock fragments in the soil on the soil erodibility factor(K), i.e. the stoniness effect on erodibility(SEK), the effect of rock fragments on the surface(St), the effect of rock fragments in profile(Kcf), the joint effect of rock fragments in profile and rock fragments on the surface(Kf-cs)and some environmental factors such as elevation, slope, slope aspect, vegetation coverage(NDVI), land use, annual average precipitation and annual average temperature at a global scale were used to explore the spatial pattern of SEK and the main controlling factors affecting SEK through correlation analysis, pattern analysis and random forest regression analysis. The results show that:(1)elevation and slope are positively correlated with SEK; vegetation coverage(NDVI), precipitation and temperature are negatively correlated with St and Kf-cs, precipitation is negatively correlated with Kcf, and temperature is positively correlated with Kcf; the influence of rock fragments on southern(sunlit)slopes is found to be greater than that on northern(shaded)slopes; the influence of rock fragments on cropland and forest is slight, while the influence of rock fragments on grassland, desert and bare land is relative heavy;(2)the main controlling factors of St and Kf-cs are elevation and slope; the main controlling factors of Kcf are precipitation and temperature. Therefore, in the evaluation of soil erosion in large regions, special attention should be paid to areas with large content of rock fragments, higher altitude and higher slope, otherwise the evaluation results of soil erosion will be biased.
