Book Watershed Erosion Processes

Download or read book Watershed Erosion Processes written by Tongxin Zhu and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is a fundamental study of watershed erosion and runoff processes. It utilizes decades of soil erosion data to take a comprehensive and balanced approach in covering various watershed erosion processes. While there are many works on soil erosion and conservation, this book fills the gaps in previously published research by focusing more on mass movement, gully erosion, soil piping/tunnel erosion, and the spatial interactions of different erosion processes. Additionally, the book examines erosion processes in extreme rainfall events, something typically absent in short-term studies but discussed in detail here as the book draws on 60 years of research and observations, including 30 years of the author's own investigations of erosion under a wide range of rainfall conditions. The book is divided into 3 parts, and is intended for soil erosion researchers and practitioners, and postgraduate students studying soil erosion and water conservation. Part 1 opens with a comprehensive and critical review of existing literature on soil erosion processes, discusses this book's place among existing literature, and examines the major erosion processes (rainwash, gully erosion, tunnel erosion, and mass movements) including their controlling factors and mechanisms. Part 2 explores the spatial interactions of these different erosion processes to provide a prerequisite for effective design of comprehensive soil erosion control measures in a watershed. Part 3 evaluates the relative significance of these erosion processes in sediment production, the effectiveness of comprehensive soil and water conservation programs, and the applications of watershed modelling in determining the impact of land-use changes on soil erosion and other ecological processes.

Book Tracking Erosion Reduction Activities on Private Lands in the Van Duzen River Watershed  California  with GIS  Geographic Information Systems

Download or read book Tracking Erosion Reduction Activities on Private Lands in the Van Duzen River Watershed California with GIS Geographic Information Systems written by Amber Marie Shows and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National water quality targets have been identified and implemented through the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) process, and resulting watershed restoration helps mitigate the causes and effects of water pollution. Monitoring progress towards TMDL targets via watershed restoration is a vital accounting step for future conservation and adaptive regulation. To support tracking of restoration projects, I developed a Microsoft Access/Esri ArcMap geodatabase tool to monitor road upgrade accomplishments of one watershed group and their success in the implementation of the Van Duzen River Sediment TMDL. The geodatabase tool was designed to facilitate planning, track implementation, and produce summary reports which were presented to the watershed group and North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board staff. Both groups confirmed that the resulting tool was an appropriate and effective method to summarize effects of restoration and to demonstrate achievement towards meeting the TMDL targets. This tool can serve as a framework around which other watershed groups can organize and use to track their efforts and progress toward meeting water quality targets.
