Reduction in soil organic matter loss caused by water erosion in inter-rows of hop gardens
Soil and Water Research, 2019 Currently, when cultivating Humulus lupulus, there is no systematic farming reducing soil erosion in the Czech Republic. As a result, annual irreversible soil and organic matter losses due to intensive rains occur on soils of hop gardens threatened by ...

Rainfall simulation for environmental application [PDF]
, 1977 Rain simulation systems have been designed for field and greenhouse studies which have the capability of reproducing the physical and chemical characteristics of natural rainfall. The systems permit the simulation of variations in rainfall and droplet size similar to that of natural precipitation.

Quantifying the time‐specific kinetic energy of simulated rainfall using a dynamic rain gauge system
Agricultural & Environmental Letters, 2021 Raindrop impact derives from the kinetic energy of falling raindrops. Determining the kinetic energy of rainfall requires the size distribution and terminal velocity of raindrops, which necessitates complex instrumentation.

Dripping Rainfall Simulators for Soil Research—Design Review
Water, 2022 Dripping rainfall simulators are important instruments in soil research. However, a large number of non-standardized simulators have been developed, making it difficult to combine and compare the results of different studies in which they were used. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to become familiar with the design and performances of the ...

The Effect of Slope on the Infiltration Capacity and Erosion of Mount Merapi Slope Materials
Journal of the Civil Engineering Forum, 2021 The infiltration on slopes has a specific behavior capable of being parameterized and one of the reasons is due to the ability of the slope to generate less ponding on the sloping soil surface.

Automated rainfall simulator for variable rainfall on urban green areas [PDF]
Hydrological Processes, 2019 AbstractRainfall simulators can enhance our understanding of the hydrologic processes affecting the total runoff to urban drainage systems. This knowledge can be used to improve urban drainage designs. In this study, a rainfall simulator is developed to simulate rainfall on urban green surfaces.
