Abstract
⺠Soil conservation design should take into account storms with a given return period. ⺠Statistical distribution of plot soil loss and rainfall erosivity was investigated. ⺠Erosivity index was usable to approximate frequency distribution of event soil loss. ⺠An estimating criterion of annual soil loss of a given return period was developed. ⺠The criterion may allow to control soil loss of a pre-established return period.
