    This document presents a progress report on assessing soil loss in the Bakiya Khola watershed using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model. It describes the RUSLE model equation and defines each factor (R, K, LS, C, P) used in the equation. It discusses how topographic and cover-management factors were determined, including using a normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) to create a C factor map. The document outlines remaining work to create rainfall erosivity and soil erodibility factor maps. It includes a table of soil sample data collected from the field study area.

    ROLL NO. 41/076


    LOCATION
    RUSLE MODEL

    A=R * K * LS * C * P
    TOPOGRAPHIC FACTOR LS
    L= (Flow Accumulation *12.5/22.13)^0.5)
    S= (0.43+0.30s+0.043s*s)/6.613
    C factor Map

    NDVI = near infrared (NIR)–red (R)/ near infrared (NIR) + red (R)

    For Landsat 8
    NDVI = (Band 5 – Band 4) / (Band 5 + Band 4)
    C= 0.431 - 0.805 * NDVI
