This book was released on 1984 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of crop residues in reducing soil erosion by water has been extensively reported. The mechanical effect of crop residues on reducing erosion is most noticeable from seedbed preparation to full crop canopy, and its is almost exclusively related to the percentage of soil surface cover. Residue mixing into the few inches of the soil surface is a common feature of conservation tillage systems. With the development of erosion theory, new approaches have been made available to describe the mechanical effects of crop residues on soil erosion by water. An experiment was conduted at the Purdue Agronomy Farm, near Lafayette, Indiana, on residue incorporation: depth (7.5 and 15cm) and residue rate (0, 1 and 4 ton/ha), and incorporation versus loose mulch on the surface (0,20 and 45% soil coverage). Wheat straw was incorporated with a rototiller into field plots on a Russel silt loam soil, with 4.4% slope. Rainfall was simulated with a programmable rainfall simulator and longer slope length than 35 ft was simulated with added inflow. Surface roughness, residue cover, soil moisture, runoff rates, sediment concentration, flow velocity, and eroded aggregate sizes were measured. Rill and interrill contributions to the erosion rates and mulch failure parameters were estimated. Residue cover percent was found to be the most important factor in the effectiveness of residues in reducing erosion. Incorporated residues reduced mulch susceptibility to be carried away and helped to maintain the initial residue cover ...

Download or read book Agricultural Nonpoint Source Pollution written by William F. Ritter and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-12-15 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you work in the water quality management field, you know the challenges of monitoring and controlling pollutants in our water supply. The increasing problem of agricultural nonpoint source pollution requires complex solutions. Agricultural Nonpoint Source Pollution: Watershed Management and Hydrology covers the latest techniques and methods of managing large watershed areas, with an emphasis on controlling non-point source pollution, especially from agricultural run-off. Written by leading experts, the book includes topics such as: nitrate and phosphorus pollution, pesticide contamination, erosion and sedimentation, water-table management, and watershed management. The authors discuss the effects of agricultural run-off - one of the most intransigent problems now faced by environmental engineers and hydrologists. They explore each issue with an eye towards the integrated management of water quality and water resources over a defined area or region. This single-source reference gives you a complete understanding of the whats, whys, and hows of nonpoint source pollution - and more importantly of how to monitor and manage it. Agricultural Nonpoint Source Pollution: Watershed Management and Hydrology provides a broad but detailed overview that helps you to comprehend the intricacies of the problem and puts you on the path to finding the answers.
