erosivFUN

This function assumes an algebraic relationship between annual rainfall amounts and rainfall erosivity. The relationship has constants that may depend of certain regions.

Soil health assessment builds information to improve decision in
soil management. It facilitates assessment of soil conditions for crop suitability [such as those given by FAO
<https://www.fao.org/land-water/databases-and-software/crop-information/en/>],
groundwater recharge, fertility, erosion, salinization [<doi:10.1002/ldr.4211>],
carbon sequestration, irrigation potential, and status of soil resources.
