The SIte COmparative Method (SICOM) is used to evaluate the heterogeneity of these factors inside the borders of field blocks. With the help of this approved method a set of indicators are provided to support the evaluation of the potential risk of water erosion inside a field block. It is demonstrated that this approach is suited for the evaluation of larger areas. Statistical data regarding the erosion risk are tabulated and maps provided.deText/Conference Paper1617-5468
