This slide illustrates the deposition that is caused by dense strips of grass.  This deposition is remote deposition because it occurs some distance from where the sediment was detached.
Soil loss also occurs at several locations on the slope.  Even though deposition occurs, the surface runoff continue through the depositional area. Soil loss on the lower part of the slope depends on runoff that originated from the very upper end of the slope.
Two distinct rates of soil loss occur on this slope.
A high soil loss occurs on the the “clean-tilled” area and a low soil loss occurs in the grass strips below where deposition ends within the strips.
 Sediment Yield = Soil Loss - Deposition
