Global Soil Erodibility

Description

This dataset encompasses global soil erodibility (K) factor maps, with the K factor being estimated through the Wischmeier and Smith (1978) method. In addition, measured values of saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) have been incorporated into the original method to formulate the Ksat-based soil erodibility (Kksat factor) map. A third k-factor dataset which was included in the GloSEM (Borrelli et al., 2017) is also included.
