    Abstract:

    [Objective] To understand the situation of soil erosion in Fuxin City of Liaoning Province and provide scientific support for policy making about soil and economic development.[Methods] The annual average soil erosion in Fuxin City was calculated with revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE) under RS and GIS platforms.[Results] The annual average amount of soil erosion in Fuxin City was 1.99×107 t, soil erosion modulus was 19.18 t/(hm2·a), and erosion intensity was on the mild level. The regional soil erosion intensity below moderate level accounted for 77.01% of research area, and contributed 12.57% of the soil erosion in the studied area, while other area above moderate level contributed 87.43%. The spatial heterogeneity of regional soil erosion was high.[Conclusion] The slope between 5°~25° was the major erosion section, and bare lands, lakes and rural areas were major erosion areas. These sections and areas should be listed as the key areas of soil and water conservation.
