Precipitation is very important to the formation of runoff, and studying of runoff variation and its response to precipitation has practical significance to sustainable utilization of water resources. The study used Mann-Kendall test, anomaly accumulation method, and precipitation elasticity of runoff method to analyze the changes in the relation of precipitation and runoff and the contribution...

Watershed management has different effects on the amount of runoff and sediment and alteration ofhydrological features in a watershed. In this study, the effects of watershed management on runoff was investigated in the Anbaranchaywatershed. For this purpose, the topography data in format of a digital elevation model, land use, soil hydrological groups and watershed managemetrigeon,and also usi...

runoff collect used for to minimize losses and strengthen water resources in watersheds.countries like some areas of iran are facing to water scarcity, faced with unsuitable distribution of rainfall. by expanding the use of water sources, using the principles of runoff from rainfall can be effective to solve the problem of water shortage.in order to estimate the runoff in watershedsthere are se...

It is well recognized that the multiple objective (MO) approach in the calibration of hydrologic and environmental models offers distinct advantages over the single objective (SO) approach in that the resulted model results can capture the system’s responses better. However, the simulation time required to perform MO calibration is often longer than SO calibration. This makes MO calibration inf...

Interpolated rain-gauge data were compared to Meteosat-based precipitation estimates for sub-Saharan Africa. Validation was carried out using a dataset from a very dense gauge network in South Africa, on a point-to-pixel (PO–PI) as well as on a pixel-to-pixel (PI–PI) basis. Error criteria computed at the gauged pixels indicate that overall the interpolated estimates perform similarly to the sat...

Runoff and interrill erosion were measured on three composted organics applied at 5-cm and 10-cm depths, a topsoil treatment (15-cm application), and the existing soil on a highway embankment with a 3 to 1 slope. Treatments were tested immediately after preparation and six weeks later to allow for the vegetative cover crop to grow. Rainfall simulations were conducted at an average intensity of ...
