Dear George Papaioannou
Hello
In fact, little numbers of studies have been conducted in field of erodibility
factor of K for geologic formation, since it is basically for soils. I just can
address you to one of my recently published paper in this regards ( Vaezi, A.R.,
Sadeghi, S.H.R., Bahrami, H.A. and Mahdian M.H., 2008, Modeling the USLE
K-factor for calcareous soils in northwestern Iran, Geomorphology,
97(3-4):414-423.Secondly, some of my colleagues have tried to do so, but they
mainly focused on quaternary formations. I will also let you know in case of
finding any new in due course.
Best Wishes

Hello to everybody. I am doing my master project and i have a little
problem. In the Universal soil loss equation there is a factor K . In
my area i have Gneiss , Granite and hard limestone (marble).I would
appreciate if someone can send me a table with the K factor for the
upper geological conditions. It is important for me to have the
biography , so please if you can include the article i would be
thankful. By the way, this forums is doing terrific job. I want to
thanks all the professors and the other members of the forum for their
selfless help. With respect George Papaioannou. Greece
