Kinematic runoff and erosion model efficiency assessment for hydrological simulation of semi-arid watersheds

Hydrologic modeling of semi-arid watersheds is imperative for the development of appropriate water and soil conservation plans. In the current study, the efficiency of Kinematic Runoff and Erosion model-version 2 (K2) model was used to evaluate water discharge and sediment load simulation of Bar watershed, located in the north-eastern part of Iran. The K2 model relies on the kinematic wave appr...

Assessment of koopal river flow and the runoff potential estimation of Southeast dust source of Ahwaz

Iranchr('39')s location on the arid world belt, the occurrence of climate change and global warming and the increased in human interference have resulted in dust storms phenomenon in the western and southwestern parts of the country, especially in Khuzestan province. The present study has been aimed at investigating the existing water resources of the province for the watering operation of the ...

Quantitative assessment of agricultural runoff and soil erosion using mathematical modeling: applications in the Mediterranean region.

Three mathematical models, the runoff curve number equation, the universal soil loss equation, and the mass response functions, were evaluated for predicting nonpoint source nutrient loading from agricultural watersheds of the Mediterranean region. These methodologies were applied to a catchment, the gulf of Gera Basin, that is a typical terrestrial ecosystem of the islands of the Aegean archip...

Investigating the Effect of Surface Gravel Cover on Runoff and Soil Erosion with Simulating Runoff

Surface gravel cover is an important factor for contoroling of soil erosion in dry area specially in area that plant can not grow because of excessive dryness and salinity. The objective of this study was investigation effect of different surface gravel cover on runoff and sediment yeild. For this porpose, 36 field plots with 20 meter length and 0.5 meter width at 3 percent slope were construct...
