The sensitivity of landscape evolution models to spatial and temporal rainfall resolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© Author(s) 2016. Climate is one of the main drivers for landscape evolution models (LEMs), yet its representation is often basic with values averaged over long time periods and frequently lumped to the same value for the whole basin. Clearly, this hides

Effects of Slope Gradient on Runoff and Sediment Yield on Machine-Induced Compacted Soil in Temperate Forests

open access: yesForests, 2020
There has been a severely negative impact on soil water resources in temperate forests caused by the introduction of the type of heavy machinery in the forestry sector used for forest harvesting operations.

Modeling nitrogen loading in a small watershed in southwest China using a DNDC model with hydrological enhancements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The degradation of water quality has been observed worldwide, and inputs of nitrogen (N), along with other nutrients, play a key role in the process of contamination.

Comparison of SWAT and WEPP for Modeling Annual Runoff and Sediment Yield in Agewu - Mariyam Watershed, Northern Ethiopia

open access: yesInternational Journal on Food Agriculture and Natural Resources
The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) and the Geographic Water Erosion Prediction Project (Geo-WEPP) were applied to compare modeling of annual runoff and sediment yield in the Agewmariam watershed, eastern Amhara Region, Ethiopia.

Effects of land uses and rainfall regimes on surface runoff and sediment yield in a nested watershed of the Loess Plateau, China

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2022
Study region: The Loess Plateau, China. Study focus: Land-use and rainfall characteristics are two crucial influencing factors that affect the surface runoff and soil loss process; however, less attention has been paid to nested watersheds in vulnerable ...

Giving credit to reforestation for water quality benefits. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
While there is a general belief that reforesting marginal, often unprofitable, croplands can result in water quality benefits, to date there have been very few studies that have attempted to quantify the magnitude of the reductions in nutrient (N and P ...

The effect of leaf litter cover on surface runoff and soil erosion in Northern China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The role of leaf litter in hydrological processes and soil erosion of forest ecosystems is poorly understood. A field experiment was conducted under simulated rainfall in runoff plots with a slope of 10%.
