当不同时段的∑EI各种组合计算的R值与土壤流失量的相关系数都很接近且都达到极显著水平的情况下,应以与土壤流失量相关系数最大的时段雨强为R值的计算参数。据此,闽东南R值的最佳计算组合为∑EI_(60),其简便算式为R=sum from 1 to 12 0...当不同时段的∑EI各种组合计算的R值与土壤流失量的相关系数都很接近且都达到极显著水平的情况下,应以与土壤流失量相关系数最大的时段雨强为R值的计算参数。据此,闽东南R值的最佳计算组合为∑EI_(60),其简便算式为R=sum from 1 to 12 0.0199P_i^(1.5682)。研究点R值年际间变化很大;年內主要集中分布于5—9月份。展开更多
