Researchers used a Back Propagation Neural Network model to predict soil erosion in the hilly region of Central Sichuan based on data from 1991 to 2000. They considered factors like rainfall, vegetation cover, and slope. Results showed that including ten factors, such as water conservation measures, led to the most accurate predictions of soil erosion.
