Miêu tả:Water erosion and sediment transport are key processes in soil degradation, significantly impacting agricultural sustainability in tropical high-slope regions such as Latin America. This review analyzes the state of the art in the modeling of these processes, with an emphasis on experimental approaches at the laboratory scale and their integration into soil conservation strategies. A mixed methodology was applied using the Scopus database, identifying 64 publications as the integrative level between 2020 and 2025. The most cited models were SWAT, IBER, and SDR-InVEST, recognized for their ability to simulate soil loss and sediment transport across different scales. Remote sensing and runoff plots emerge as key tools for model validation in tropical contexts. The findings highlight the potential of modeling to support sustainable soil management and contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, challenges remain regarding data quality, local validation, and integration with sustainability frameworks. It is concluded that applied research in tropical regions must be strengthened, and the integration of technical and scientific tools into soil conservation planning must be promoted.
