Laboratory Model Tests on the Deformation and Failure of Terraced Loess Slopes Induced by Extreme Rainfall

Land
Heavy rainfall is the main factor inducing the failure of loess slopes. However, the failure mechanism and mode of terraced loess slopes under heavy rainfall have not been well investigated and understood.

Compensatory forestation for soil water retention in watersheds of Campos do Jordão municipality, SP, Brazil

Revista Ambiente & Água, 2011
Compensatory forestation is an important technique to estimate the necessary forest cover for compensating the water loss due to surface runoff within a watershed and, therefore, guiding forest recovery interventions.

Modeling of infiltration from an artificial recharge basin with a decreasing ponded depth

, 1991
The first important physical process in basin recharge is the infiltration of water from the basin's bed to the water table below. The Green and Ampt approach was applied to model infiltration from an artificial recharge basin with a decreasing ponded ...

Investigation on the behaviors of water infiltration in the unsaturated loess

Frontiers in Earth Science
Introduction: Surface water from precipitation or irrigation is the sole contributor to groundwater replenishment in the Loess Plateau of China. The occurrence of landslides in the Loess Plateau is closely related to the infiltration process of surface ...
