Dejavu, your question was staring me in the face for several hours, so I finally decided to see whether I could answer it.
The Universal Soil Loss Equation, which predicts the long-term average annual rate of erosion on a field slope based on several factors is:
A = R x K x LS x C x P
Now, if I've messed up on that, blame this site:

Very good,I'm woking on memorizeing all the letters for a test. R= rain K=soil erodibility S=slope L=length C=cover P=practices of conservation.
