Experimental Setup for Splash Erosion Monitoring—Study of Silty Loam Splash Characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
An experimental laboratory setup was developed and evaluated in order to investigate detachment of soil particles by raindrop splash impact. The soil under investigation was a silty loam Cambisol, which is typical for agricultural fields in Central ...

Analysis of Urban Flood Inundation Patterns According to Rainfall Intensity Using a Rainfall Simulator in the Sadang Area of South Korea

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
An urban flood in the Sadang area located in South Korea was reproduced using a rainfall simulator. The rainfall simulator was developed to be able to demonstrate the rainfall intensity in range of 80−200 mm/h, and the artificial rainfall was ...

Effects of rainfall patterns on runoff and soil erosion in field plots

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2015
Soil erosion processes during a storm are strongly affected by intra-storm variations in rainfall characteristics. Four storm patterns, each with a different rainfall intensity variation were separated.

Derivation and evaluation of landslide-triggering thresholds by a Monte Carlo approach [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014
Assessment of landslide-triggering rainfall thresholds is useful for early warning in prone areas. In this paper, it is shown how stochastic rainfall models and hydrological and slope stability physically based models can be advantageously combined in a

Intensity–duration–frequency (IDF) rainfall curves in Senegal [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Abstract. Urbanization resulting from sharply increasing demographic pressure and infrastructure development has made the populations of many tropical areas more vulnerable to extreme rainfall hazards. Characterizing extreme rainfall distribution in a coherent way in space and time is thus becoming an overarching need that requires using appropriate ...

Trace Nickel Activated Biphasic Core‐CuOii/Shell‐CuOi Secondary Microspheres Enable Room Temperature Parts‐Per‐Trillion‐Level NO2 Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An idea of designing novel sensors is proposed by creating appropriate Schottky barriers and vacancies between isomorphous Core‐CuOii/ Shell‐CuOi secondary microspheres and enhancing catalytic and spill‐over effects, and electronegativity via spontaneous biphasic separation, self‐assembly, and trace‐Ni‐doping.

Geostatistical upscaling of rain gauge data to support uncertainty analysis of lumped urban hydrological models [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017
In this study we develop a method to estimate the spatially averaged rainfall intensity together with associated level of uncertainty using geostatistical upscaling.

Quantitative Kinetic Energy Estimated from Disdrometer Signal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The kinetic energy of the rain drops was predicted in a relation between the rain rate and rain quantity, derived directly from the rain drop size distribution (DSD), which had been measured by a disdrometer located in the eastern state of Alagoas ...
