Abstract

The chapter delves into the intricate relationship between morphotectonics and soil erosion, a pressing global issue exacerbated by human activities. It highlights the significant role of water-induced erosion, accounting for 80% of agricultural land degradation worldwide. Advanced modeling techniques such as logistic regression and evidential belief function are employed to estimate erosion potentiality, providing a robust framework for predicting and mitigating soil loss. The study emphasizes the importance of understanding the causal parameters, including elevation, aspect, slope, and drainage density, to accurately assess erosion risk. By combining these methods into an ensemble model, the research offers a sophisticated approach to soil conservation, making it an essential read for professionals in the field.
