Runoff leads to the leaching of soil nutrients, transports the topsoil particles and deposits the sediments in water reservoirs. Recognition of different environmental factors affecting the runoff properties and water infiltration depth has a great importance concerning soil for the integrated management of watershed and the distinguishment of complex hydrological processes. Thus, this research...

1. introduction rainfall intensity and duration are one of the most important factors in the occurrence of landslides; therefore, nowadays rainfall is recognized as the most common and triggering factor in the occurrence of landslides. since raw data of landslide displacement is very important to researchers in order to study the deformation process and laws of landslide displacement, the globa...

Urbanism directly affects the hydrological cycle. One of the ways to manage runoffs in urban areas that is considered nowadays is green roof creation. Green roof is mainly created in humid and semi-humid areas, and efficiency of green roofs in arid and semi-arid areas has attracted less attention. In the current study, to evaluate the effect of green roof in arid and semi-arid to reduce runoff,...

investigation of inter-storm variability of runoff and soil loss characteristics helps experts and decision makes better understanding of hydrological response. however, this important has been less considered in the world, especially developing countries. the present study was therefore planned to evaluate the effect of different rainfall intensities and slopes on inter-storm variability of co...

generally, the evaluation and assessment critical condition of rill formation are useful for a better understanding of soil erosion processes. the inherence characteristics of soils, which have much dynamic variations on the hill-slopes and are affected by rill formation, are the soil critical shear stress and soil erodibility factors. this study aims to assess experimental rill incision thresh...

a synoptic method based on stream analysis is applied to understand the governing mechanism of summer rainfall occurrence in the south of iran. based on this, the rainfall data of 152 stations of iran were analyzed for a 33-year period (1970-2002). investigating the spatial and temporal distribution of summer rainfall, a typical rainy region is recognized in the south east of iran. it is found ...

In this study, urban pluvial flood risk is studied in an actual study area using scenario simulation method based on hydrodynamics. Real weather data and GIS (Geographic Information System) data are adopted to make the results reliable. A region in Haidian District of Beijing is selected as the study area. All the rainfall scenarios (about 200 scenarios) during an 8-year period (from January 1,...

this study tries to investigate relationship between rainfall parameters and usle r factor. to gain r-factor, at first, shower kinetic energy was calculated and then its erosivity computed by using maximum 30 minutes rainfall intensity. therefore 3 meteorological stations in khuzestan province and one station per kohgiloyeh & boyerahmad and boushehr provinces were selected and their recorde...
