Evaluation of potential soil water erosion in the Myjava Hill Land: The comparison between two physically.based erosion models

The scope of this study is an evaluation of potential soil water erosion using two physically-based erosion models EROSION-2D and EROSION-3D.These two models are event-based, calculating potential soil water erosion during the real measured rainfall event. The calculations of both erosion models take advantage of DEM, precipitation and soil parameters, which are established in the specific Parameter catalogue. The potential soil water erosion was modelled in two small catchments in the Myjava Hill Land (Slovakia), using 8 soil moisture scenarios and two different crops.
