Abstract

The uploaded datasets include the spatial layers and derived outputs used for soil erosion and sediment yield assessment in the Kodaganar Basin. The dataset contains raster layers representing the RUSLE model factors, including rainfall erosivity (R), soil erodibility (K), slope length and steepness (LS), cover management (C), and support practice (P). In addition, the dataset includes the resulting soil erosion raster generated from the RUSLE model and the sediment yield raster derived using the sediment delivery ratio (SDR) approach. Sub-watershed boundary data and associated sediment load estimates used for watershed prioritisation are also included. These datasets support the spatial analysis and results presented in the manuscript.
