Evaluation of Rainfall Interception by Vegetation Using a Rainfall Simulator [PDF]

Sustainability, 2021
Interception by vegetation is one of the main variables controlling hydrological and geo-environmental problems such as erosion, landslides and floods. Interception, along with precipitation and evapotranspiration, is required for the modeling of infiltration, percolation and runoff.

Soil loss and runoff obtained with customized precipitation patterns simulated by InfiAsper

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2022
Applying constant precipitation intensity, which does not occur in natural events, is one of the main limitations concerning rainfall simulators in soil erosion studies.

Developing an automatic collector of runoff for studies using rainfall simulators [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2023
Soil erosion studies using rainfall simulators are generally expensive and time consuming. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop a prototype of an automatic runoff collector, capable of real-time quantifying runoff volume and soil loss in field ...

Development and testing of a large, transportable rainfall simulator for plot-scale runoff and parameter estimation [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014
There is increased interest in the interplay between vegetation conditions and overland flow generation. The literature is unclear on this relationship, and there is little quantitative guidance for modeling efforts.

Conversion of soil water infiltration rates between vegetated and non-vegetated land covers by using the Kostiakov-Lewis model [PDF]

RBRH, 2022
Soil water infiltration rates are essential for hydrological studies, planning and design of irrigation and drainage systems, among other applications. Various studies have been carried out in plots with and without vegetation cover, aiming to identify ...

Effect of plot size and precipitation magnitudes on the activation of soil erosion processes using simulated rainfall experiments in vineyards

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Soil erosion is recognized as a threat to humankind and to natural ecosystems when sustainable limits are exceeded. Several researchers have used various tools, such as rainfall simulators, to assess extreme rainfall events and non-sustainable soil ...
