黄土地区的土壤侵蚀严重地影响了当地和黄河下游地区的可持续发展,研究黄土地区的土壤侵蚀对于该地区的水土保持工作具有重要意义。采用人工模拟降雨试验的方法对黄土裸坡土壤侵蚀过程进行了研究,取得了如下结果:(1)不同雨强条件下,坡地土壤侵蚀随降雨过程的变化相似,可用幂函数相关方程进行描述,侵蚀强度变化的转变点在降雨开始后的10～15min之间;(2)不同雨强条件下,坡度对土壤侵蚀的影响相近且可用抛物线相关方程进行描述,侵蚀强度变化的临界坡度在25～30°间;(3)不同雨强条件下,坡地土壤侵蚀总量随坡长的变化可用幂函数相关方程进行描述,但坡长对侵蚀模数的影响比较复杂,表现为不同的形式;(4)不同坡度条件下,降雨强度对土壤侵蚀的影响相似且均可用线性相关方程进行描述,随着坡度的增大,土壤侵蚀随雨强增大而增加的越明显;(5)裸坡次降雨侵蚀经验模型为多元幂函数统计方程,裸坡条件下降雨强度对土壤侵蚀的影响最大,坡长与坡度的影响基本大体一致。研究结果表明,采取不同措施增加地面覆盖、停止陡坡耕种、截断坡地径流是治理黄土地区水土流失的有效途径。

黄土坡面下坡位土壤侵蚀过程的模拟试验

在中国科学院水利部水土保持研究所,采用2个不同坡长小区室内模拟降雨试验方法,对黄土坡面下坡位侵蚀过程进行研究。结果表明:1)坡面下坡位侵蚀模数随降雨过程、降雨强度及坡度的变化均具有大小交错,上下波动的特征,侵蚀模数随降雨过程的变化总体呈先上升后趋于稳定的态势,随降雨强度的增大而增加,随坡度的增大而先增大后减小,再增大再减小;2)坡面上、下坡位侵蚀模数随降雨过程、坡度及降雨强度的变化均具有明显差异,下坡位明显不如上坡位;3)坡面上坡位汇流和下坡位产流与坡面上坡位输沙对坡面下坡位侵蚀模数的影响可用二元线性方程很好地描述,前者的贡献率为47.8%,后者为20.4%;只通过观测分析小区平均侵蚀特征得出的坡面侵蚀过程,掩盖了坡面下坡位的真实侵蚀过程,采取水土保持措施减少坡面上坡位汇流及增加降雨就地入渗,可以有效地治理坡面下坡位的水土流失。

不同近地表土壤水文条件下雨滴打击对黑土坡面养分流失的影响

目前,土壤水分饱和和壤中流条件下,雨滴打击对养分流失的影响尚不清楚。通过3个近地表土壤水文条件(自由入渗、土壤水分饱和与壤中流)下,土槽上方架设与不架设尼龙纱网模拟降雨对比试验,研究雨滴打击对黑土坡面侵蚀过程及NO3-N、NH4-N与PO4-P随径流和侵蚀泥沙迁移的影响。结果表明,纱网覆盖消除雨滴打击后坡面侵蚀量和泥沙浓度分别减少59.4%—71.6%和57.3%—73.0%,不同水文条件下减少量的排序为:自由入渗>壤中流>土壤水分饱和。消除雨滴打击后养分随径流流失的减少仅在自由入渗条件下体现较明显,该水文条件下NO3-N、NH4-N与PO4-P流失分别减少33.3%、23.1%和40.7%;3种水文条件下,消除雨滴打击均明显减少养分随泥沙的流失,其中自由入渗条件下减少效果最明显,该水文条件下,NO3-N和NH4-N流失分别减少20.9%—54.9%和25.0%—62.3%,而PO4-P流失减少在74.6%以上。雨滴打击增大了NO3-N的淋失,但对NH4-N与PO4-P的淋失几乎无影响。消除雨滴打击后,自由入渗条件下养分的等效径流迁移深度减少26.7%—42.6%,而土壤水分饱和与壤中流条件下基本无变化。以上研究结果为有效防治坡面土壤侵蚀和农业非点源污染提供科学理论依据,尤其是在壤中流出现的地方。

喀斯特树轮记录的土壤侵蚀历史研究（英文）

在贵州中部典型喀斯特石漠化区选择2个试验样地进行树轮地貌学研究,通过对样地内计22对裸露和非裸露树根进行野外测定并取样进行室内测试,表明:喀斯特裸露根系记录了土壤侵蚀结果,裸露树根解剖结构显示土壤侵蚀发生时树根细胞生长发生明显变化,显示出年轮突然变窄、细胞明显减小、或者早材细胞数量减少等,同时,纤维面积、导管管胞面积也发生显著下降,多达70.66%,少则39.20%,而这种变化仅只与土壤侵蚀有关,结合树根年龄测定,得到土壤侵蚀发生的准确时间,并据此计算出样地尺度土壤侵蚀的动态过程,其中普定土壤侵蚀量发生在2002-2007年之间,平均侵蚀速率为每年0.484 t;贞丰土壤侵蚀发生在2005-2007年之间,平均侵蚀速率为每年0.051 t。树轮记录的土壤侵蚀不仅可以同一个物种进行测定,还可以多物种共同记录,这为以多物种阔叶混交林为主要植被的喀斯特土壤侵蚀记录的研究提供了强有力的方法;而树轮记录的土壤侵蚀量大大大于径流场监测的流失量,显示喀斯特地下流失为主,流失量占总土壤侵蚀量的2/3。

Spatio-temporal Variation of Wind Erosion in Inner Mongolia of China Between 2001 and 2010

Using Geographic Information System(GIS), based on wind speed, precipitation, topographic, soil, vegetation coverage and land use data of Inner Mongolia between 2001 and 2010, we applied the revised wind erosion equation(RWEQ) model to simulate wind erosion intensity. The results showed that an area of approximately 47.8 × 10~4 km^2 experienced wind erosion in 2010, 23.2% of this erosion could be rated as severe, and 46.0% as moderate. Both the area and the intensity of wind erosion had decreased from 2001 to 2010, the wind erosion area reduced 10.1%, and wind erosion intensity decreased by 29.4%. Precipitation, wind speed, population size and urbanization in rural areas, and gross domestic product of primary industry(GDP1) were the main factors influencing wind erosion. Overall, these factors accounted for 88.8% of the wind erosion. These results indicated that the decrease in wind erosion over the past decade related to the increase in precipitation and the decrease in the number of windy days, while modest urban development and optimization of the economic structure might partially reduced the level of ecological pressure, highlighting the importance of human activities in controlling wind erosion.

Rainfall and Tillage Impacts on Soil Erosion of Sloping Cropland with Subtropical Monsoon Climate- A Case Study in Hilly Purple Soil area, China

Under global warming, storm events tend to intensify, particularly in monsoon-affected regions.As an important agricultural area in China, the purple soil region in the Sichuan Basin, where it has a prevailing monsoon climate, is threatened by serious soil erosion. Tillage operations alter runoff and soil erosion processes on croplands by changing the physical properties of the soil surface. To clarify the relationship between tillage and soil erosion in the purple soil region, three different tillage practices in this region were investigated at the plot scale over 4 years: bare land with minimum tillage(BL),conventional tillage(CT) and seasonal no-tillage ridges(SNTR) which was initially designed to prevent soil erosion by contoured ridges and no-tillage techniques. The results showed that although there were no significant differences in the surface runoff and soil erosion among the three practices, BL causedrelatively high surface runoff and soil erosion,followed by CT and SNTR. Classification and comparison of the rainfall events based on cluster analysis(CA) verified that the surface runoff was not significantly different between most intensive event and long intensive events but was significantly different between most intensive and short and medium-duration events. Only the rainfall events with the highest rainfall intensity could trigger serious soil erosion, up to 1000 kg ha-1 in the region. Further detailed investigations on the effects of tillage operations on the soil erosion in a subtropical region with a monsoon climate are needed to provide a basis for modeling catchments and designing better management practices.

Effects of Shrub on Runoff and Soil Loss at Loess Slopes Under Simulated Rainfall

Improved understanding of the effect of shrub cover on soil erosion process will provide valuable information for soil and water conservation programs.Laboratory rainfall simulations were conducted to determine the effects of shrubs on runoff and soil erosion and to ascertain the relationship between the rate of soil loss and the runoff hydrodynamic characteristics.In these simulations a 20° slope was subjected to rainfall intensities of 45,87,and 127 mm/h.The average runoff rates ranged from 0.51 to 1.26 mm/min for bare soil plots and 0.15 to 0.96 mm/min for shrub plots.Average soil loss rates varied from 44.19 to 114.61 g/(min·m^2) for bare soil plots and from 5.61 to 84.58 g/(min·m^2) for shrub plots.There was a positive correlation between runoff and soil loss for the bare soil plots,and soil loss increased with increased runoff for shrub plots only when rainfall intensity is 127 mm/h.Runoff and soil erosion processes were strongly influenced by soil surface conditions because of the formation of erosion pits and rills.The unit stream power was the optimal hydrodynamic parameter to characterize the soil erosion mechanisms.The soil loss rate increased linearly with the unit stream power on both shrub and bare soil plots.Critical unit stream power values were 0.004 m/s for bare soil plots and 0.017 m/s for shrub plots.

Uncertainty Assessment of Soil Erosion Model Using Particle Filtering

Recent advances in computer with geographic information system(GIS) technologies have allowed modelers to develop physics-based models for modeling soil erosion processes in time and space.However, it has been widely recognized that the effect of uncertainties on model predictions may be more significant when modelers apply such models for their own modeling purposes.Sources of uncertainty involved in modeling include data, model structural, and parameter uncertainty.To deal with the uncertain parameters of a catchment-scale soil erosion model(CSEM) and assess simulation uncertainties in soil erosion, particle filtering modeling(PF) is introduced in the CSEM.The proposed method, CSEM-PF, estimates parameters of non-linear and non-Gaussian systems, such as a physics-based soil erosion model by assimilating observation data such as discharge and sediment discharge sequences at outlets.PF provides timevarying feasible parameter sets as well as uncertainty bounds of outputs while traditional automatic calibration techniques result in a time-invariant global optimal parameter set.CSEM-PF was applied to a small mountainous catchment of the Yongdamdam in Korea for soil erosion modeling and uncertainty assessment for three historical typhoon events.Finally, the most optimal parameter sets and uncertainty bounds of simulation of both discharge and sediment discharge at each time step of the study events are provided.

Laboratory Testing of Magnetic Tracers for Soil Erosion Measurement

Soil erosion, which includes soil detachment, transport, and deposition, is one of the important dynamic land surface processes. The magnetic tracer method is a useful method for studying soil erosion processes. In this study, five types of magnetic tracers were made with fine soil, fly ash, cement, bentonite, and magnetic powder (reduced iron powder) using the method of disk granulation. The tracers were uniformly mixed with soil and tested in the laboratory using simulated rainfall and inflow experiments to simulate the interrill and rill components of soil erosion, in order to select one or more tracers which could be used to study detachment and deposition by the erosive forces of raindrops and surface flow of water on a slope. The results showed that the five types of magnetic tracers with high magnetic susceptibility and a wide range of sizes had a range of 0.99-1.29 g cm?3 in bulk density. In the interrill and rill experiments, the tracers FC1 and FC2 which consisted of ?y ash and cement at ratios of 1:1 and 2:1, respectively, were transported in phase with soil particles since the magnetic susceptibility of sediment approximated that of the soil which was uneroded and the slopes of the regression equations between the detachment of sediment and magnetic tracers FC1 and FC2 were very close to the expected value of 20, which was the original soil/tracer ratio. The detachment and deposition on slopes could be accurately reffected by the magnetic susceptibility differences. The change in magnetic susceptibility depended on whether deposition or detachment occurred. However, the tracer FS which consisted of fine soil and the tracers FB1 and FB2 which consisted of fly ash and bentonite at ratios of 1:1 and 2:1, respectively, were all unsuitable for soil erosion study since there was no consistent relationship between sediment and tracer detachment for increasing amounts of runo?. Therefore, the tracers FC1 and FC2 could be used to study soil erosion by water.
