Process_Description:
Relative erosion rates for each land cover type were calculated using the values listed below. NASA Geocover-LC 1990 (path/rows 4,47, 4/48, and 5/47) were used to code erosion rate by land cover.

Land Cover Type, Grid Code, Relative Erosion Rate Deciduous Forest, 1, 15 Evergreen Forest, 2, 15 Shrub/Scrub, 3, 50 Grassland, 4, 125 Barren, 5, 220 Urban, 6, 210 Agriculture, 7, 200 Permanent Wetland, 9, 80 Mangrove, 10, 80 Water, 11, 5 Cloud/No Data, 13, 0
