Concentration-discharge relationships in runoff from a steep, unchanneled catchment
The observation that “old” water dominates storm runoff suggests that release of low-solute water from soils rather than rainwater must cause storm runoff dilution. This inference is supported by sprinkling experiments in an 860-m catchment in the Oregon Coast Range, in which .200 mm of both high and low ionic strength precipitation produced similar concentration-discharge trends. Rainwater che...
متن کاملUnsaturated zone processes and the hydrologic response of a steep, unchanneled catchment
As part of a larger, collaborative study, we conducted field experiments to investigate how rainfall signals propagate through an unsaturated soil profile, leading to a rapid pore pressure response and slope instability. We sprinkler-irrigated an entire, unchanneled headwater basin in the steep, humid Oregon Coast Range, and we drove the system to quasi steady state as indicated by tensiometers...
متن کاملRunoff production on forest roads in a steep, mountain catchment
[1] This study investigated how roads interact with hillslope flow in a steep, forested landscape dominated by subsurface flow and how road interactions with hillslope flow paths influence hydrologic response during storms in a second-order catchment. Runoff was measured continuously from 12 subcatchments draining to road segments and covering 14% of a 101-ha, second-order catchment (WS3) in th...
متن کاملDevelopment and application of a catchment similarity index for subsurface flow
[1] In this study, we develop a similarity parameter to describe shallow subsurface hydrological response of small catchments on the basis of the hillslope‐Péclet number. This new similarity parameter, named the catchment‐Péclet (caPe) number, provides a theoretical framework to compare the relative hydrologic response derived from shallow subsurface flow of small catchments on the basis of geo...
متن کاملSediment flow paths and associated organic carbon dynamics across a Mediterranean catchment
Terrestrial sedimentation buries large amounts of organic carbon (OC) annually, contributing to the terrestrial carbon sink. The temporal significance of this sink will strongly depend on the attributes of the depositional environment, but also on the characteristics of the OC reaching these sites and its stability upon deposition. The goal of this study was to characterise the OC during transp...
