Soil Erosion Studies Using Simulated Rainfall

摘要

A study was conducted in vertisol to determine variation in runoff, soil loss and particle size distribution with different Antecedent Moisture Condition (AMC). The runoff and soil loss increased as AMC increased. However the particle size distribution in the sediment is not affected by either antecedent moisture condition or by total runoff. But the amount of each particle size varied with increasing AMC.
