Weather types, runoff and sediment yield in a Mediterranean mountain landscape

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2013
ABSTRACTThe relationship between the synoptic weather types (WTs), runoff and sediments in a Mediterranean mountain landscape was analysed. The study was performed between 2005 and 2012 using one of the most complete and extensive daily databases of rainfall, runoff and sediment recorded in the Spanish Pyrenees, coupled with WTs defined from the ...

[Effects of shrub patch pattern on runoff and sediment yield].

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology, 2020
Understanding the changes of runoff, sediment transport, and hydrodynamic parameters of slopes under the influence of landscape patch coverage and connectivity is of great significance for revealing the hydrodynamic mechanism and hydrological connectivity of slope soil erosion process.

Surface Runoff and Sediment Yield from Various Tillage Systems of Cotton

Transactions of the ASAE, 1988
ABSTRACT THREE tillage systems of cotton were studied to determine their effects on surface runoff and sediment yield during growing period of 1985 and 1986 in the Tennessee Valley region of northern Alabama. They include; reduced tillage without a cover crop (RT), reduced tillage with a winter wheat cover crop (RTC) and conventional tillage (CT ...

Tillage system effects on runoff and sediment yield in hillslope agriculture

Field Crops Research, 2001
Abstract Runoff and soil erosion are major factors of land and lake degradation in the Patzcuaro Watershed located in Michoacan, Mexico. This non-point source pollution results from corn cultivation on steep cropland sites. In the local farming system, the soil is bare for much of the year and subject to frequent plowing and cultivation. Conservation

A Process-Based Method for Evaluating Terrace Runoff and Sediment Yield

2012 Dallas, Texas, July 29 - August 1, 2012, 2012
Terraces have been proven to be an effective conservation practice for controlling high soil loss. In large hydrological programs such as Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), terrace effects are simulated by adjusting the slope length and the USLE P-factor.

EFFECT OF WATERSHED SUBDIVISION ON SIMULATION RUNOFF AND FINE SEDIMENT YIELD

Transactions of the ASAE, 1997
The objective of this study was to establish the subwatershed size dependency of the Soil and Water Analysis Tool (SWAT) erosion model to adequately simulate annual runoff and fine sediment (< 0.063 mm) from the 21.3 km2 Goodwin Creek Watershed (GCW).

Sediment yield, runoff and hydraulic characteristics in straw and rock fragment covers

Soil and Tillage Research, 2019
Soil loss is a major global challenge threatening the future of soil and water resources. The significant implications of soil loss necessitate the adoption of appropriate soil conservation practices and soil management solutions according to the regional climate.

Effects of Herbaceous Plants on Hydrodynamic Characters of Runoff Water, and Runoff-Yielding and Sediment-Yielding Processes on Loessial Earth-Road Surface

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
Runoff and soil losses from earthen hillside roads are a serious problem on the Loess Plateau in China. Indoor rainfall simulation was employed to investigate hydrodynamic characteristics of runoff water, and runoff-yielding and sediment-yielding processes on earth-road surfaces with different coverage degrees of herbaceous plants.

BMP IMPACTS ON WATERSHED RUNOFF, SEDIMENT, AND NUTRIENT YIELDS¹

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, 1994
ABSTRACT: To quantify the effectiveness of best management practice (BMP) implementation on runoff, sediment, and nutrient yields from a watershed, the Nomini Creek watershed and water quality monitoring project was initiated in 1985, in Westmoreland County, Virginia.
