Infiltration Process in Gravelly-soil Slopes as Affected by Storm PatternsPublished by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, St. Joseph, Michigan www.asabe.org Citation: International Symposium on Erosion and Landscape Evolution (ISELE), 18-21 September 2011, Anchorage, Alaska 711P0311cd Paper #11075.(doi:10.13031/2013.39269)Authors: Chia-Chun Wu, Yu-Ting Chan, Chen-Han Wang Keywords: Infiltration process, Storm patterns, Soil moisture reaction time, Gravelly soil The infiltration process constitutes a great part of the hydrology component in modern erosion prediction models, which mainly governs runoff production. Nevertheless, soil characteristics, surface conditions, and storm patterns create difficulties in describing or differentiating infiltration process responses analytically and numerically, especially when infiltration is taking place on gravelly-soil slopes. Therefore, the objective of this study was to experimentally assess the effects of storm patterns on a straw mat mulched slope. (Download PDF) (Export to EndNotes)
