Abstract
TIle rainfall erosion index (EI30) is a measure of the erosivity of rain, which is useful in prediction of soil loss. The average annuall EI30 at Anand comes to 772.59. Nearly 98% of annual erosion index is concentrated during June to September. July has been found to be the most erosive month. Prediction models have been developed and tested. These models have been found to be very useful in quick detennination of kinetic energy and erosion index of storms.Downloads
