The Effects of Micro Catchment Runoff Harvesting System on Soil Moisture Enhancement
Rainfall harvesting and storage in soil depth through micro catchment contribute to curtail water deficiency of plants. The objective of this research that was conducted in Kaboodeh-Olya village in Kermanshah province, Iran, was to compare the effects of three different micro catchment systems on soil moisture storage including flat, crescent and rhombus shaped. The experimental research was pe...
متن کاملUsing a special empirical model to estimate sediment yield of Koohbord dam watershed in Kohgilouyeh County
Extended abstract Koohbord dam watershed with a total area of 38.29 square kilometers in Kohgiluyeh and Boyerahmad province is one of the watersheds without sedimentation data, which requires the use of empirical models to estimate the sediment for estimating sediment, so the results obtained through data is the basis of the management plans of dam watershed. In this research, using base maps ...
متن کاملA probability distribution function approach to modelling rainfall–runoff response for data-sparse catchments
A rainfall–runoff (RR) model considering the spatial variation of rainfall, soil infiltration capability and soil storage capacity over a catchment and based on probability distribution functions, is used for rainfall–runoff modelling. The model combines infiltration excess (Horton) and saturation excess (Dunne) mechanisms. Moreover, it is applied to a data sparse catchment. Model parameters of...
متن کاملRainwater harvesting: A gardening necessity in semi-arid regions
This research aims to introduce the water supply method required for pistachio orchards in semi-arid climatic regions using the rainwater harvesting technique. For this purpose, a rain catchment system with an area of 1000 m2 was constructed at the Tasuj Station site. Based on the mean annual rainfall of the region, runoff threshold, runoff coefficient for insulation surfaces and the area of th...
متن کاملCatchment Classification and Hydrologic Similarity
Hydrology does not yet possess a generally agreed upon catchment classification system. Such a classification framework should provide a mapping of landscape form and hydro-climatic conditions on catchment function (including partition, storage, and release of water), while explicitly accounting for uncertainty and for variability at multiple temporal and spatial scales. This framework would pr...
