Enrichment of organic carbon in sediment transport by interrill and rill erosion processes [PDF]
, 2008 Erosion and loss of organic carbon (OC) result in degradation of the soil surface. Rill and interrill erosion processes on a silt loam soil were examined in laboratory rainfall and flume experiments.

Dripping Rainfall Simulators for Soil Research—Performance Review [PDF]
Water, 2023 Rainfall simulators represent often-used equipment for soil research. Depending on their performance, they could be appropriate for some soil research or not. The aim of this research is to provide insight into the capabilities of existing dripping rainfall simulators (DRS) to mimic natural rainfall and the frequency of simulated rainfalls of certain ...

Piping and woody plants in peatlands: Cause or effect? [PDF]
, 2005 This paper presents, for the first time, evidence to show that Calluna species are one causative factor of piping in blanket peat catchments. Ground-penetrating radar survey on 960 plots illustrated that piping was prevalent throughout blanket peats ...

Evaluation of Erodibility of Formations in the Khangah-Sorkh Watershed (Urmia) Using a Rain Simulator [PDF]
پژوهشهای آبخیزداری, 2020 Erosion is one of the major causes of waste of water and soil. Perhaps the main reason for failure to control erosion is the weakness of knowledge and recognition of this phenomenon. Due to the great value of soil and the subsequent problems arising from

Prediksi Laju Sedimentasi dan Erosi di Sub DAS Kemuning Menggunakan Rainfall Simulator
Agritech, 2019 Sedimentation is the accumulation of sediment materials in a location due to both surface erosion and cliff erosion that occurred in the water catchment area, and which was carried by the flow of water to that location.

Impact of pig slurry amendments on phosphorus, suspended sediment and metal losses in laboratory runoff boxes under simulated rainfall [PDF]
, 2012 peer-reviewedLosses of phosphorus (P) when pig slurry applications to land are followed by a rainfall event or losses from soils with high P contents can contribute to eutrophication of receiving waters. The addition of amendments to pig slurry spread on
