Abstract

This study examines recent advancements in soil erosion modeling using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), integrated with remote sensing and artificial intelligence techniques. Adopting a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis via Bibliometrix in R, 63 articles were analyzed from an initial 359 based on strict selection criteria. Findings reveal a sharp rise in publications since 2017, especially involving machine learning and Google Earth Engine (GEE) platforms. Co-authorship analysis highlights significant international collaboration, particularly between Asia and Europe. Concept maps and co-word analyses show a shift from traditional RUSLE applications toward AI and big data approaches. Thematic evolution further indicates a growing focus on climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Key research gaps include the limited use of field validation, weak SDG integration, and a lack of strong international research networks. This review offers strategic insights to guide future investigations, emphasizing the need for more inclusive, data-driven studies capable of addressing land degradation and climate resilience. Overall, the study contributes to the development of more effective erosion mitigation models through technological integration and international collaboration.
