Increasing surface runoff from Greenland's firn areas. [PDF]
<p>Most of the Greenland ice sheet (&#8764;78% to 92%) is underlain by porous snow and firn, into which meltwater can percolate and refreeze, or run off. However, the fate of meltwater in firn areas is poorly constrained. We identified the ice sheet&#8217;s annual visible runoff limits by mapping surface hydrological ...

Hydrologic analysis indicated that surface runoff from manure accumulated in dairy areas would not occur very frequently in southern California. This was verified by a field test using simulated rainfall. Hydrologic data collected in this experiment were used to establish the runoff-rainfall relationship for the Chino-Corona dairy preserve.

Technology of surface runoff purification [PDF]
Surface runoff from urban area is a potential source of pollution of water bodies. Characteristics of rainfall runoff in some cities of Russia and foreign countries are given in the article. Traditional wastewater treatment facilities include the mechanical removal of large items, debris and leaves; sand removal; water clarification in accumulative ...

The objective of this study was to compare approaches to modeling surface runoff due to summer and autumn storms on a cultivated field. The data consisted of measurements performed every 15 minutes during rainfall-surface runoff events in 1993. A transfer function model was formulated using measured rainfall or rainfall excess as an input and surface ...

Rainfall sequence effects on phosphorus loss in surface runoff from pastures that received poultry litter application [PDF]
Land application of poultry litter to pasture elevates the concentration of phosphorus in surface runoff and it is becoming an increasing problem in sensitive water bodies.

Master\u27s Project: Assessing Unpaved Road Runoff in the Mad River Watershed of Central Vermont [PDF]
Over half of the local town roads in Vermont are unpaved (VBB, 2009). In the Mad River Watershed of central Vermont, 58% of the roads are unpaved. These compacted surfaces, despite their lack of tar, provide hundreds of miles of impermeable surfaces that
