Proposed by Wischmeier and Smith rainfall-runoff erosivity factor (R-factor) is usually recognized as a proper tool for regional climatic condition description in respect to soil erosion by water. It is also a basic input to simple and widespread soil erosion prediction models like USLE and RUSLE. However its calculation on the base of original precipitation records is a very laborious operation and is completely impossible for many locations without a precise precipitation data. The aim of the research was to develop a new simple method of annual R-factor values estimation on the base of very general precipitation data. Examined was the possibility of implementing artificial neural networks for annual R-factor values estimation on the base of the sole summer period and annual precipitation totals. The research was conducted with the use of database containing calculated summer period and annual rainfall-runoff erosivity factor values from 138 stations in Germany. As a result of the study 3 radial basis function networks (RBF) of two to five hidden layer neurons and 2 multilayer perceptrons networks (MLP) with one and two hidden layers were developed. Obtained correlation coefficients of observed versus predicted R-factor values were higher then the coefficients reported previously for the simple linear regression models. The study results suggested the possibility of neural networks technology introduction for R-factor values estimation on the base of precipitation totals instead of simple statistical regional relationships.
