Analysis of Precipitation Characteristics during 1957-2012 in the Semi-Arid Loess Plateau, China
Precipitation is the only water supply and most important factor affecting vegetation growth on the slopes of semi-arid Loess Plateau of China. Based on precipitation data from 7 synoptic stations in the study area over the period 1957-2012, the trends of precipitation and standardized precipitation index (SPI) were analyzed by using linear regression, Mann-Kendall, and Spearman's Rho tests at ...
متن کاملImpacts of soil conservation on groundwater recharge in the semi-arid Loess Plateau, China
Soil conservation measures undertaken to address land degradation can alter the hydrologic cycle by changing partitioning of water fluxes at the land surface. While effects on runoff are well documented, impacts of soil conservation activities on fluxes to groundwater are poorly understood. The goal of this study was to examine fluxes to groundwater in a semi-arid area of China’s Loess Plateau ...
متن کاملRainfall Characteristics of the Liudaogou Catchment on the Northern Loess Plateau of China
The objectives of this study were to understand the rainfall characteristics of thewind-water erosion crisscross region on the northern Loess Plateau, China, to provide basisfor the studies on mitigation of soil erosion, estimation on surface water resources andlocal hydrological circle, etc. The Liudaogou Catchment with representative climatic andhydrologic conditions of wind-water erosion cri...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Partitioning of the Available Energy over the Semi-Arid Areas of the Loess Plateau, China
To investigate the mechanism of available energy partitioning to sensible and latent heat fluxes over semi-arid regions, data from the Semi-Arid Climate and Environment Observatory of Lanzhou University (SACOL) were analyzed to assess the effects of soil moisture, net radiation, and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) on available energy partitioning, as quantified by Bowen ratio. It was found that th...
متن کاملValidation of the EPIC model using a long-term experimental data on the semi-arid Loess Plateau of China
The EPIC model has been widely used in the world as an effective decision support tool in irrigation allocation and scheduling. However, there are still some uncertainties surrounding the soil water estimation of the EPIC model. In this paper the EPIC model was validated for soil water estimation in a semi-arid region, based on a set of long term experimental data on the Loess Plateau. Validati...
