Significant Change
ØRule of thumb:
-A change in a RUSLE2
soil loss estimate by more than
10% is considered significant and meaningful in terms of representing main effect.
-An change less than
10% is not considered significant
in general
ØThe accuracy for RUSLE2 representing how main effects affect soil loss is much better than the absolute accuracy for RUSLE2 estimating soil loss at any particular location and landscape condition.
