- Assessment of Soil Losses by Erosion in a Karst Environment in the Cerrado Biome of Brazil(2022-08-01) TAVARES, André Silva; UAGODA, Rogério SoaresThis work aimed to estimate the volume of soil losses due to water erosion in a watershed dominated by karst features, which results in the quantity of sediment directed to the caves in the region. The Corrente river watershed is located in the Northeast region of the State of Goiás, Brazil. Through the Potential Erosion Method (EPM) applied in the Geographic Information System, soil losses were quantified for the year 2021. The estimated average soil loss was 26.41 to/ha/year-1, with a maximum flow of 10,689,083.57 to/year-1 in the watershed outlet. The limits of the catchment, producing sediments to the caves were obtained, which allowed extracting an average estimate of transported sediments in these karst regions.
