RUSLE2 keeps of both live
and dead biomass pools.

Killing converts live
biomass to dead biomass.
|
|
Operations shift dead
biomass among pools (e.g. standing to flat, flat to buried, resurfacing of
buried to flat)
|
|
Operations with soil
disturbing effects bury residue and resurface buried residue.
|
