    • 5 Pages

    1. SURFACE RUNOFF INTRODUCTION: Runoff means the draining or flowing off of precipitation from a catchment area through a surface channel enters into a stream channel. It is convenient to visualize three main routes of travel; overland flow (air hujan limpahanpermukaan)‚ interflow‚ and ground water flow (air dari punca bawah tanah). 1 Runoff results from rainfall occurrence in a hydrologic catchment. Rainfall-runoff relations are Interflow/subsurface and base flow/groundwater flow

    Capillary rise) Synopsis This project report explains about the surface tension and capillarity of liquid through a simple experiment of finding the capillarity of various detergents. Oil stains and grease on dirty clothes cannot be removed‚ using water alone‚ because water does not wet them. If detergents added ‚ surface tension is decreased‚ the area of contact is increased. Detergent molecules have the shape of a hairpin‚ one of which is

    Processes of Soil Erosion

    • 688 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The first step in the erosion process begins as raindrops impact the soil surface. Raindrops typically fall with a velocity of 20-30 feet per second. The energy of these impacts are sufficient to displace soil particles as high as two feet vertically. In addition‚ the impact of a rainfall on a bare soil can compact the upper layer of soil‚ creating a hard crust that inhibits plant establishment. Sheet erosion occurs as runoff travels over the ground‚ picking up and transporting the particles dislodged

    physically based model developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)‚ operates at a daily time step. This model has been developed on a physical‚ semi-distributive‚ scale-basin basis for continuous time and with emphasis on soil surface processes. SWAT’s sub-watersheds are divided into hydrological response units (HRUs) that have unique combinations of slope‚ land use‚ and soil type within the sub-basin and form the basic land segment for computing flow and transport.

    basis. Watersheds have an infinite variety of shapes‚ and the shape supposedly reflects the way that runoff will “bunch up” at the outlet. A circular watershed would result in runoff from various parts of the watershed reaching the outlet at the same time. An elliptical watershed having the outlet at one end of the major axis and having the same area as the circular watershed would cause the runoff to be spread out over time‚ thus producing a smaller flood peak than that of the circular watershed

    Stony Hill is also composed a variety of species of forbs. The soils at this site include Eckrant cobbly silty clay (EcB) soils ranging from shallow to very shallow; however‚ the soil is well drained with moderately slow permeability and rapid surface runoff with 1-3 percent slopes. Methods Soil characteristics‚ which affect infiltration rates and are crucial to understanding infiltration‚ include bulk density‚ vegetation‚ and microtopography. To assess and calculate these characteristics‚ 32 microplots
