Objective: To compare the biomechanic features of Tai Chi ait by elders with those by young adults, and with those of ormative gait. Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Laboratory-based testing. Participants: Young (n 6; 3 women) and old (n 6; 5 omen) Tai Chi practitioners. Intervention: All subjects had practiced Tai Chi for at least months. Main Outcome Measures: Spatial, temporal, and le...

Design of vegetative filter strips for trapping sediment and sediment-borne chemicals can be done on a storm event basis using VFSMOD. This approach requires confidence in a number of input parameters such as soil infiltration characteristics, surface topography, vegetative composition and roughness, and incoming sediment load and particle size distribution. We have developed a simple program, ...

In this paper, we attempted to review the erosion in Ouergha watershed by applying two spatial approaches. The has an area of around 7300 km² representing approximately 18.2% Sebou basin which it is main tributary. order develop map using SWAT model, was important prepare a large database describing proprieties, furthermore, daily hydro-climatic data. This model integrates MUSLE equation for es...

SubDAS Brantas Hulu termasuk dalam salah satu area DAS yang mengalami perubahan terhadap berkurangnya kemampuan dari segi menyimpan air dan semakin besarnya laju erosi maupun sedimentasi. Terkait dengan penanganan akan dilakukan, perlu dilakukan adanya analisis besaran Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui nilai indeks bahaya (IBE) oleh Hammer (1981) merupakan parameter mengukur kepekaan tanah l...

The increasing sediment yield in the watershed is caused by natural and human activities, which significantly shifts hydro-meteorological watershed. Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation (MUSLE) equation Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to estimate yields for each hydrological response unit (HRU) based on peak runoff, daily runoff volume, area of unit, other estimated default model paramet...

Abstract Flash floods, among the most destructive natural hazards, are commonly studied as to their catastrophic power in terms of fatalities, infrastructure damages and economic losses. A devastating aftermath flash which has not received much‐deserved attention literature, is sizeable permanent soil loss due erosion sediment yields. This study aims at forecasting yields disastrous storm event...

The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide an opportunity for researchers publish novel results that could help landowners, land-users, farmers, politicians, and other representatives our global society protect, and, if possible, improve the quality quantity precious soil resources. Authors were encouraged submit papers related new ways mapping, showing more detailed input data, modeling r...
