Man, Vegetation and the Sediment Yields of Rivers

Nature, 1967
Is it possible to reconstruct erosion rates for past epochs when modern rates of erosion all reflect the hand of man to a greater or lesser extent ? © 1967 Nature Publishing Group.

Chapter IV. Sediment Sources and Sediment Yields

Journal of the Hydraulics Division, 1970
Methods and procedures are analyzed for determining erosion rates from water-borne sediments, along with sediment yield or deposition rates at locations downstream from the erosion source. Emphasis is placed on the erosion types and processes which cause the most engineering problems, either by virtue of the large sediment quantities involved or by the

Reservoir effects on sediment yield

Journal of Hydrology, 1980
Abstract Sediment yields for two years from the adja cent and generally comparable Rheidol and Ystwyth catchments are examined to assess the downstream effects of impounding and regulation of discharges from 84% of the Rheidol catchment. Suspended sediment yields are highly variable from year to year, but from the Ystwyth were 16 and 7 times those ...

Temporal Variation of Sediment Yield

Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 1996
Estimates of temporal variation of the sediment yield are required for studies of reservoir sedimentation, river morphology, and soil and water conservation. In this paper, a method is proposed for prediction of the variation of sediment yield with time.

Interpreting sediment yield scaling

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2017
AbstractTerrestrial sediment yield – often measured as suspended sediment load in stream channels – commonly scales with drainage area within homogeneous land surface regions. But the effect of drainage area has not usually been recognized in comparative sediment yield analyses, rendering most comparisons of sediment yield from disparate source areas ...

A Global Survey of Sediment Yield

Geografiska Annaler: Series A, Physical Geography, 1988
Sediment yield data were collected from national institutes and other sources. Attention was paid to data reliability in general.

Gully development and sediment yield

Journal of Hydrology, 1966
Abstract Several methods are presented which may be helpful in quantitative gully erosion studies. Advancement rate of gully heads is related to watershed area, and sediment yield of a gully system is calculated and compared with trapped sediments.

Estimate of sediment yield in a basin without sediment data

CATENA, 2005
Abstract In this study, three mathematical models for the estimate of sediment yield, due to soil and stream erosion, at the outlet of a basin are presented. Each model consists of three submodels: a rainfall-runoff submodel, a soil erosion submodel and a sediment transport submodel for streams.

Erosion and sediment yield on the earth

1996
The paper is based on suspended sediment yield data from 3763 stations and bed load data from 295 stations. Within plain regions a distinct maximum of erosion and sediment yield occurs in the tropical and subtropical zones. Statistical analysis indicates that the principal factors controlling the zonal distribution of erosion are runoff amount and land
