REDB-BR: Rainfall Erosivity Database for Brazil

  • 1. Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul

Description

This is REDB-BR, the Rainfall Erosivity Database for Brazil from the MSWEP rainfall dataset.

It provides the R factor from the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) in a 0.1º resolution grid, developed with 37 years of rainfall data from the MSWEP dataset.

The R factor was calculated trough 73 erosivity index regression equations, which mostly uses a relation between monthly precipitation and annual precipitation, the Modified Fournier Index (MFI), and represents a good approximation to locals with no sub-hourly data for long periods. 

The main product of REDB-BR is the R factor map, available also as a .tif raster. The database also includes the equations shapefile, Thiessen Polygons shapefile and the equations table.
