Abstract:
      As a new generation prediction technology, Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) is a guide to conservation planning and a tool for quantitative researches of soil erosion.In recent years, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing technologies have been introduced for generating, preprocessing and visual display of parameters in WEPP model.Meanwhile, the introduction of regionalization concept makes WEPP application in lager areas.This paper concentrated on the latest development of WEPP and briefly analyzed some potential problems of WEPP applied in China.The object of this paper was to promote the development of soil erosion predicting model in China through calculating all the advantages and disadvantages of WEPP.
