However, only a small number of medium-to-large catchments have access to these data, while tiny basins and a diversity of landscapes still lack this type of information. Although these data are only accessible for a small number of medium-to-large catchments, the analysis that is based on gauging data can help detect the effects that changes in land use have on soil erosion and sediment dynamics. In order to measure how soil erosion and sediment yield respond to changes in land use, numerical simulations of soil erosion processes have proven to be a reliable alternative tool [8; 19]. The primary aim of this study is to utilize the IntErO model in order to assess the maximum outflow and soil erosion intensity within three river basins located in Cluj County, Transylvania. The selection of the river basins was based on their individual characteristics, which encompass a variety of land uses or relief, and provide a wide array of environmental and ecological functions. In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in erosion rates [33; 34; 35], leading to a subsequent decline in agricultural output within the region. The degree of soil erosion at the river basin level in the research region must be determined in order to establish appropriate soil and water conservation measures in place to solve the issue. It is commonly acknowledged that good land management can, to some extent, slow down the processes of soil erosion [12; 13]. This is necessary for the gathering of field data and the use of predictive models for the evaluation of different management scenarios for soil protection. Modeling the erosion process offers a realistic option that can accurately estimate both runoff and soil loss, because conventional methods for detecting erosion and sedimentation in the field are time-consuming and expensive. The IntErO model has been used to understand the severity of erosion in similarly organized river basins around the world in conjunction with other soil erosion models, but it has not yet been utilized in Romania to estimate sediment production. The objective of this study is to provide assistance to land use planners in enhancing their comprehension of the magnitude of soil erosion and facilitating the implementation of efficient soil- and water-conservation techniques. The objective of this study is to develop a sustainable modeling approach that can be calibrated and validated in the three river basins located in Cluj County, Romania. The aim is to assess the ability of water resources to fulfil the water demands of the local community, agricultural activities, and environmental-ecological sectors. Because of the complexity of the erosion process and the features, regional and temporal fluctuation of soil erosion, and the non-existence or lack of associated data, the application of empirical models became necessary. Researchers are compelled to use em pirical models on a variety of scales, due to the complexity of hydrological processes, the geographical and temporal heterogeneity of all effective components, and the unavailability of key observed field data. The calculations performed by the IntErO model proved to be a valuable tool in evaluating the production of sediments in soils, particularly in evaluating different scenarios after establishing the input database for river basins in Transylvania, Romania. These calculations will serve as a good starting point for future evaluations, and will be of use in evaluating different scenarios.
