Soil Erosion Control Using Coir Geotextile - A Fuzzy Logic Modelling
Soil erosion is a natural phenomenon enhanced by human activity which occurs in all landscapes under different land uses with climate and geology as the most important factors influencing them. Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is widely accepted and designed for predicting long-term average annual soil losses. Slope stabilization using Coir Geotextile which is biodegradable can aid in vegetative turfing along the slopes and thereby reduce soil erosion. The objective of this paper is to develop and evaluate a Fuzzy Logic Model based on USLE empirical equation and thereby simulating the effects of Coir Geotextile on soil erosion during rainfall events. The Fuzzy model can be used for predicting soil erosion intensity in Kerala for different types of soil in various combinations of slope angle, crop cover, rainfall intensity etc., and also can be used to select the appropriate variety of coir geotextile for soil erosion control.
