Description :
The AA. made 2 comparisons to evaluate the effects of DEM horizontal resolution and processing algorithm on the accuracy of the L factor in gently sloped landscapes : one is between the grid cumulating method (GC) and the contributing area method (CA) using D8 flow-routing algorithm, the other is among single (D8, Rho8) and multiple (FD8, FRho8 and DEMON) flow-routing algorithms for processing the contributing area method. In 2 comparisons, 5 m, 10 m, 25 m, 50 m and 100 m DEM of a 0.88 km2 catchment in the lowland of Northern Germany were applied. The results indicate that L factor calculated with any of the 6 methods is sensitive to horizontal resolution, which strongly affects the accuracy. It is concluded that DEM horizontal resolution is very important for L factor calculation. This study can be used for selecting a suitable method and DEM resolution for accurate calculation of L factor and soil loss in gently rolling landscapes.
