Estimating RUSLE's Rainfall Factor in the Part of Italy with a Mediterranean Rainfall Regime. Diodato, N. 8:103–107. Paper abstract bibtex The computation of the erosion index (EI), which is basic to the determination of the rainfall-runoff erosivity factor R of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), is tedious and time-consuming and requires a continuous record of rainfall intensity. In this study, a power equation(r\textsuperscript2 = 0.867) involving annual erosion index (EI\textsubscript30-annual) in the Mediterranean part of Italy is obtained. Data from 12 raingauge stations are used to derive and then test a regional relationship for estimating the erosion index from only three rainfall parameters. Erosivity rainfall data derived from 5 additional stations are used for validation and critical examination. The empirical procedures give results which compare satisfactorily with relationships calibrated elsewhere.
