Erosion amount reaches the maximum as slope angle is close to critical slope, which is existed in slope surface scouring. A calculation formula of critical gradient, functionally related with slope length, precipitation intensity and slope surface roughness, is established by energy conservation principle. The determinations of critical gradient and single-stage height of slope are analyzed through an example. Being basically identical with engineering practice, the theoretical analysis done is proved to be reasonable and feasible.%边坡坡面冲刷存在一个临界坡度,边坡坡度接近临界坡度,冲刷量最大.通过能量守恒原理,建立了临界坡度的计算公式,它与边坡坡长以及降雨强度和坡面的粗造程度存在一定的函数关系.通过实例分析了临界坡度和单级坡高的确定,理论分析与工程实践基本一致,说明理论分析是合理可行的.
