This process impacts various areas, and its measurement is a critical tool for adopting management strategies and conservation practices. Mathematical models can estimate soil losses under different environmental conditions. When integrated with GIS environments, these models significantly reduce execution and study costs, while generating valuable information, creating maps, and characterizing the environment. This study aimed to perform a systematic literature review on mathematical models for soil and water loss and to highlight some of their applications through the analysis of articles published in journals and indexed in electronic databases. Over the years, various models have been developed, and their use has proven essential for implementing conservation practices and restoring degraded areas. Due to the complexity of the process, it is crucial to consider the parameters available in each situation to select the most appropriate model.</p> Nayme Soares Guedes Camila de Sousa Queiroz Almeida Caio Herman Teixeira de Oliveira Marlon Fernandes Ramos Huézer Viganô Sperandio Jorge Luiz dos Santos Gomes Daniel Brasil Ferreira Pinto Rafael Alvarenga Almeida Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Geoscience, Engineering and Technology https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-12-02 2024-12-02 11 1 1 9 Study on Mass Movement Risk Area in The Manoel Pimenta Neighborhood in the City of Teófilo Otoni/MG http://geovales.com/index.php/Journal/article/view/171 <p>Brazil is a country with great climatic, geological and socioeconomic diversity. One of the main problems faced in urban centers is the occupation of land, mostly by an economically vulnerable population, in areas at risk of movement of massive soil or in areas of flooding, putting them at risk of material, health and life. This work aims to identify, classify and recommend technical solutions in an area at risk of slope sliding in the Manoel Pimenta neighborhood, in the city of Teófilo Otoni. A history of mass movement and the imminence of new mass movement were noted in the study area, where there are 3 residences, all classified as R4 (High Risk), requiring intervention from public bodies and owners to mitigate risks.</p> Helio Soares de Aguilar Junior Antônio Jorge de Lima Gomes Hiago Félix Santos Thais Mayara Rodrigues Gomes Thiago Ferreira de Araújo Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Geoscience, Engineering and Technology https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-12-02 2024-12-02 11 1 10 17
