NAME
r.usler - Computes USLE R factor, Rainfall erosivity index.

KEYWORDS
raster, hydrology, rainfall, soil, erosion

SYNOPSIS
r.usler
r.usler --help
r.usler input=name output=name method=string [--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]

  Flags:

--overwrite
    Allow output files to overwrite existing files

--help
    Print usage summary

    Force launching GUI dialog

  Parameters:

input=name [required]
    Name of annual precipitation raster map [mm/year]

output=name [required]
    Name for output USLE R raster map [MJ.mm/ha.hr.year]

method=string [required]
    Name of USLE R equation
    Options: roose, morgan, foster, elswaify
    Default: morgan
    roose: Roosle (1975)

DESCRIPTION
r.usler calculates USLE R factor for Rainfall erosivity. It enables several empirical equations: Roosle (1975), Morgan (1974), Foster(1981) and El-Swaify (1985).

NOTES
r.watershed provides for USLE L, S, LS factors.

EXAMPLE
TBD.
