Abstract:
... Ephemeral gullies or rills are major sediment sources and the primary channel to convey runoff and sediments from hillslopes. Quantifying the detachment rate is important for understanding the erosion process of ephemeral gullies. This study suggests a method to estimate the detachment rate for use in WEPP model, using sediment distribution data along an eroding rill or ephemeral gully under contr ...

Abstract:
... An experimental program was initiated following an intense wildfire in 2003 in NE Victoria Australia, to quantify an expected large increase in hillslope erosion by rill and interrill processes from a steep, wet, Eucalyptus forest. Water repellence, soil water content, infiltration capacity, infiltration-excess runoff generation, interrill erodibility, and rill erodibility were measured periodical ...

A new method/sensor capable of taking automatic measurements of sediment-laden runoff flow rates is presented. Mechanical structures, hydraulic backgrounds and computational principles of the suggested sensor are discussed in details. Theoreti ...

Abstract:
... Much of the flow of the Indus originates in the mountainous regions of the Karakoram and Himalayas, resulting in a high sediment yield that creates a number of operational and maintenance problems for downstream water use in Pakistan. Analysis of the available hydro-climatological data indicates that the upper Indus basin can be subdivided into three characteristic regions based on whether runoff ...

Abstract:
... It is a standard practice to establish grasses on steep slopes (batters) of embankments and cuttings to minimise erosion problems. However, the increase in grass density (high biomass) on the steep slopes poses a greater risk of fire. Controlled burning is a common fuel hazard reduction program employed to minimise the fire risks. The increased risk of erosion on the steep slopes after controlled ...

Abstract:
... In a given watershed, the accuracy of models in predicting the hydrologic and erosion behavior depends, to a large extent, on the quality of the knowledge in respect of the spatial rainfall. The hydrologic and erosion aspects of rainfall are often discussed without due regard to any resulting improvement in watershed modeling. Thus, there is a real need for streamlining raingauge networks in order ...

Accurate estimation of soil erosion due to water is very important in several environmental contexts, such as the assessment of potential soil loss from cultivated lands and the evaluation of the loss of water storage capacity in reservoirs due to sediment deposition. Several studies have been carried out to build models suitable to quantify the results of erosion processes. These models, calibrat ...
