I have an activity where students actually measure feed conversion in mealworms so they can see first-hand how biomass decreases up the trophic pyramid. The only unusual item of equipment you need is a drying oven for drying the feed so that you have standardized measurements. Here is the video:

I have a video and a write-up (attached) of an activity I designed that crudely estimates the cost-effectiveness of photovoltaic panels. It is copyrighted, but you are allowed to make copies of the procedure for your students. I hope this helps!

I do not know how relevant this is to what you need. I have a video and write up (attached) of an activity I designed for measuring soil texture. Even though the activity does is not done outdoors (but you go there to get the samples) and does not directly measure erosion, it does measure run off activity, which is directly proportional to erosion.
