Application of Data-Mining Algorithms in the Sensitivity Analysis and Zoning of Areas Prone to Gully Erosion in the Indicator Watersheds of Khorasan Razavi Province

Extended abstract 1- Introduction Gully erosion is one of the most important sources of sediment in the watersheds and a common phenomenon in semi-arid climate that affects vast areas with different morphological, soil and climatic conditions. This type of erosion is very dangerous due to the transfer of fertile soil horizons, and the reduction of water holding capacity also is a factor for s...

Effects of Rainfall and Runoff Variables on Phosphorus Loss in a Forest Watershed, Iran

Suspended sediment resulted from distributed soil erosions facilitates nutrient transportation and influences soil depletion. Phosphorus (P) is one of the major limiting nutrients controlling eutrophication of surface water. Irregular P load pulsed by heavy rainfall may damage the ecological quality of downstream waters. P transport study during rainfall events is important in both predicting a...

Transforms for Runoff and Sediment Transport

Transforms reduce the distributions of surface-runoff and sediment-transport variables to nearexponential distributions typical of rainfall duration and intensity. Two transform parameters are determined from field measurements using either a graphical method or the method of moments. The transforms were tested on both small experimental plots and very large watersheds for the distributions of ...

Modification of phosphorus export from an eastern USA catchment by fluvial sediment and phosphorus inputs

Phosphorus (P) export from agricultural catchments can accelerate freshwater eutrophication. Landscape-based remedial measures can reduce edge-of-field P losses. However, stream channel hydraulics and fluvial sediment properties can modify the forms and amounts of P exported by the time it reaches the catchment outlet. This study examines if land use, fluvial sediment properties, and storm flow...

Dissolved Phosphorus Transport during Storm and Base Flow Conditions from an Agriculturally Intensive Southeastern Coastal Plain Watershed

The high density of animal production in southeastern Coastal Plain watersheds has caused some soils to contain excess amounts of plant–available soil phosphorus (P). Runoff, erosion, and leaching can transport P to surface water systems and out of these watersheds. High P concentrations in downstream aquatic ecosystems can increase the risk of eutrophication. Our objectives were to determine s...
