Description:

Relative erosion rates for each land cover type were calculated using the values listed below. NASA Geocover-LC 2000(http://www.MDafederal.com/geocover/geocoverlc/

) (path/rows 4,47, 4/48, and 5/47) were used to code erosion rate by land cover.Land Cover Type, Grid Code, Relative Erosion RateDeciduous Forest, 1, 15Evergreen Forest, 2, 15Shrub/Scrub, 3, 50Grassland, 4, 125Barren, 5, 220Urban, 6, 210Agriculture, 7, 200Permanent Wetland, 9, 80Mangrove, 10, 80Water, 11, 5Cloud/No Data, 13, 0
