The researchers used a model called EROSION-3D to predict soil water erosion in the Myjava Hill Land. They looked at different soil moisture levels and crop types to see how erosion varied. By analyzing 35 years of rainfall data, they found that the model's results changed based on the input factors used. This shows that factors like soil moisture and crop type can greatly affect soil erosion in the area.
