SERENA EJPSOIL BE Flanders EROSION SOILLOSS cookbook

Vlaams Planbureau voor Omgeving

The dataset (5m resolution) was mainly produced to test the methodology of the SERENA soil erosion cookbook of the European SERENA EJP SOIL project. The data was prepared according to the methodology of SERENA soil erosion cookbook. The objective of SERENA project was to develop methods to calculate and map soil-based ecosystem services and soil threats. Soil loss was used as an indicator for soil erosion. For Belgium, the application was carried out at regional scale for the Flanders region. To create the soil erosion map, RULSE modelling was done according to the SERENA cookbook using several publicly available datasets. The following auxiliary data was used: K-Factor, Land-Cover Map, Long-term 30 yr averaged monthly rainfall, LS-Factor given by Panagos et al. (2015). The dataset will be mostly useful as a reference result for actors that want to learn to implement the part of the soil erosion cookbook of SERENA dealing with the creation of an erosion map. It has limited use as an erosion map for Flanders because a more detailed and accurate map exists for Flanders based on regional covariates.
