Soil erosion is a critical challenge threatening agricultural productivity and environmental sustainability globally. This study presents the first estimation of water-induced soil loss in Ordu province, Turkey, using Revised Universal Loss Equation (RUSLE) integrated with Google Earth Engine (GEE) Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies. Our analysis provides spatial insights into patterns across region, revealing that rates range from 0–5 t/ha/yr stable areas to over 200 severely eroded regions. The mean rate estimated at 12.58 t/ha/yr. identified LS factor (slope length steepness) as most significant contributor erosion, followed by R (rainfall erosivity). These findings offer valuable dynamics, supporting sustainable management practices informing control strategies. results contribute land use planning policy development aimed mitigating degradation enhancing resilience province.

The present study aims to delineate the groundwater potential zones (GWPZ) in Boudinar Basin using geospatial techniques and through an analytical hierarchal process (AHP) method. For multi criteria decision analysis, fifteen thematic layers were integrated into a geographic information system (GIS) environment. In this each layer is calculated for normalized weights. Furthermore, consistency index ratio ensure that result was significant reliable. GWPZ map has been categorized three classes: poor (50.82%), moderate (49.06%), good (<1.00%). To compare result, we used four other scenarios of GWPZ. Two them are most similar our result. Finally, predictive production management strategies long-term sustainability highly needed.

ABSTRACT The task of soil erosion estimation received a significant push by integrating remote sensing and geographical information systems (GIS) with the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) in early 1990s due to its ease applicability. Topographic (LS) factor played quintessential role loss determination, especially for undulating regions. In most worldwide studies, topographic extracted from Digital Elevation Model (DEM) using “LS equations” failed account varying slopes before material joins stream or river. this study, slope length (L) steepness (S) derived without cutoff are compared analyzed hilltop mine. results reflect that LS and, ultimately, over‐estimated owing absence any limits on terrains when used conventionally GIS environment. mean estimated is 252.26 ton ha −1 year , whereas 332.81 conventional application same equation. overestimation was reduced 35% as per volume‐based validation study. Thus, study proves usefulness factor, which, date, has mostly been neglected research studies terrains. pattern also highlights negating impact vegetation steep slopes, cementing their Nature based Solution (NbS) dynamic landscapes like Mines.
