Modeling runoff and sediment yield of Kesem dam watershed, Awash basin, Ethiopia [PDF]
Runoff and sediment yield modeling is important in the watershed to alleviate soil erosion and reservoir sedimentation. This paper presents runoff and sediment yield modeling of Kesem dam watershed, which has a drainage area of 2660 km2. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT, version 2009) integrated with ArcGIS software (version 9.3) was used to ...

Rainfall is the key factor to understand soil erosion processes, mechanisms, and rates. Most research was conducted to determine rainfall characteristics and their relationship with soil erosion (erosivity) but there is little information about how ...

Microchannels Affect Runoff and Sediment Yield From a Shortgrass Prairie [PDF]
Abstract Runoff and sediment yield from rangelands are extremely important variables that affect productivity, but are difficult to quantify. Studies have been conducted to assess erosion on rangelands, but very little has been done to determine if microchannels (rills) affect runoff and sediment yield.

Performance of AnnAGNPS model in predicting runoff and sediment yields in Nan Province, Thailand
Land use changes such as deforestation and urban development influences the river discharge, soil erosion and sediment yield. It is important to evaluate tools which can be used to assess such impacts on water and sediment yield.

Water and soil losses from sloping farmlands potentially contribute to water eutrophication and land degradation. However, few studies explored the combined effects of ridge direction and ridge width on surface runoff and soil losses of sloping farmlands.
