WEPP (Water Erosion Prediction Project)
The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) is a computer-based model that estimates how water causes soil erosion on landscapes. It considers factors like rainfall, slope, soil type, and land cover to predict how much soil might be washed away over time. WEPP helps land managers and farmers develop strategies to reduce erosion, protect soil health, and prevent environmental damage. It simulates erosion processes across different conditions, providing valuable insights for sustainable land use and conservation planning.
