Runoff and Sediment Yields from Runoff Plots on Chained Pinyon-Juniper Sites in Utah [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Range Management, 1973
and 150~cm depths in the woodland is due in part to deeper root penetration by the pinyon and juniper trees. Crested wheatgrass roots are concentrated in the surface 45 cm of soil profile, while juniper and pinyon roots are concentrated in the upper 90 cm of soil profile with sinker roots that penetrate even further.

Forecasting of Runoff and Sediment Yield Using Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesJournal of Water Resource and Protection, 2009
Runoff and sediment yield from an Indian watershed during the monsoon period were forecasted for differ-ent time periods (daily and weekly) using the back propagation artificial neural network (BPANN) modeling technique. The results were compared with those of single- and multi-input linear transfer function models.
