Soil erosion can be estimated using readily available remote sensing observations upon using popular existing methods like USLE, MUSLE, and RUSLE. However, the accuracy is quite a higher case of RUSLE. Apart from that, many conventional models like the MMF model which is based on the soil hydraulic characteristics gives comparable result. You can use some readily available tools like WEPP model and SWAT to estimate the erosion directly with minimal model inputs.
You may find the below article useful which identifies the critical locations based on erosion and flood using the SWAT model:
2. Radioactive cesium technology is a more rapid and less expensive method for soil erosion studies in the severely intensive croplands, it gives more accurate results for all types of erosion studies including historic, comparative and long-term soil and soil organic carbon erosion

A open source model "Water and tillage erosion model and sediment delivery model (WaTEM/SEDEM)" can be used. If you have reservoir sediment yield data for a watershed than it is better choice than WEPP and SWAT modeling. Physical erosion models such as WEPP, SWAT are complex with several parameters being required to be calibrated whereas WaTEM/SEDEM requires less input parameters. It is a spatial-physical-distributed soil erosion model. It was developed based on RUSLE model and sediment transport capacity equation. It has similar data requirement as the RUSLE. It can spatially simulate the rates of soil erosion and sediment deposition. This model also allows the incorporation of landscape structure and connectivity to identify sediment source areas. It's equation has the ability to simulate the contribution of hillslope gully erosion too. But this model has one disadvantage that neither river bank erosion nor channel storage are simulated by this model. Data requirement of WaTEM/SEDEM are: DEM, land use map, river network, parcel map, soil erodibility map, crop management and soil conservation practice maps. Hope, this information will help you.
