Erosive rainfall results in the loss of both soil and nutrients, which indirectly triggers deterioration a reduction land productivity. However, how affects runoff, erosion, nutrient under different crop rotation patterns topographic factors remains unclear. This experiment observed nine runoff-erosion plots on Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) from 2019 to 2020 determine effects type, pattern, slope...

Background: Changes in temperature and precipitation pattern seriously affect the amount of river runoff coming into Dam Lake. These changes could influence the operating conditions of reservoir systems such as Jor hydropower reservoir system (Malaysia) with the total capacity of 150 MW. So, it is necessary to analyze the effect of changes in weather parameters on the river runoff and consequen...

in this research prediction methods of artificial neural network and chaos theory are employed to predict daily, weekly and monthly runoff. for this, runoff series data observed at pole-kohneh located in the qareh-soo river. the nonlinear predictions of chaos are found to be in close agreement with the observed runoff, with high correlation coefficient for daily and weekly time scales. predicte...

arid and semi-arid ecosystems are very sensitivity to changes. fluctuations in climate variables and increasing human activities; result in the changes in hydrological processes of these ecosystems, and consequently, their structures degradation. in this study, hydro-climatic data of the bakhtegan basin for the period of 1972–2011, were analyzed to assess effects of climate variability and huma...

[1] The water table in southwestern Niger has been rising continuously for the past decades (4 m rise from 1963 to 2007), despite a 23% deficit in monsoonal rainfall from 1970 to 1998. This paradoxical phenomenon has been linked with a change in land use from natural savannah to millet crops that have expanded in area sixfold since 1950 and have caused soil crusting on slopes that has, in turn,...

in iran, fine grained formations (neogene's units) are very susceptible to erosion. also, they are the units producing runoff and causing soil loss in watersheds. the objectives of this study is to assess the effect of physical - chemical and mechanical properties of these formations on sediment and runoff rates at different rainfall intensities, based on using field simulator in taleghan ...

Radiocarbon dating of late Quaternary deposits and shorelines of Lake Mojave and cation-ratio numerical age dating of stone pavements (Dorn. 1984) on the adjacent Soda Mountains piedmont provide age constraints for alluvial and eolian deposits. These deposits are associated with climatically controlled stands of Lake Mojave during the past 15.000 yr. Six alluvial fan units and three eolian stra...
