VYSLOUZILOVA, B., KLIMENT, Z. (2012): Soil Erosion and Sediment Deposition Modelling at the Small Catchment Scale. Geografie, 117, No. 2, pp. 170-191.-Water erosion is considered to be the most important factor behind the degradation of agricultural land. Many methods of measuring soil erosion processes, using mathematical models, have been developed in recent years. The most widespread of these, USLE, and its modifications have been used as the basis for new erosion models. Two such models, USPED (Mitasova et al. 1996) and WaTEM/SEDEM (Van Rompaey et al. 2001; Van Oost et al. 2000; Verstraeten et al. 2002), have been utilized to study erosion and deposition processes in the experimental rural catchment of Cernici. River sediment transport is also calculated using the WaTEM/SEDEM model. The results are discussed with results from USLE and a field survey. The article also presents brief instructions for implementing the models in a GIS environment.
