Hillslope Hydrology
Author: M. J. Kirkby
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
A complete guide to the behavior of water on graded land Hillslope Hydrology provides a comprehensive introduction to the behavior of water on a slope. Describing the fates of precipitation, the mechanics of runoff, and the calculations involved in assessment, this book clarifies the complex interplay of soils, sediment, subsurface flow, overland flow, saturation, erosion, and more. An ideal resource for graduate students of Earth science, environmental science, civil engineering, architecture, landscape management, and related fields, this informative guide provides the essential information needed to work effectively with graded land or predict outcomes of precipitation.

ISBN:
Category : Hydrology
Languages : en
Pages : 692
Book Description
This publication presents basic data on monthly precipitation and runoff; annual maximum discharges and volumes of runoff; and selected runoff events with associated data on rainfall, land use, and antecedent conditions for agricultural watersheds where research studies were in progress in the period 1956-59. Its presentation is a continuation of the activity of processing and releasing hydrologic data of general interest gathered cooperatively with other agencies.

Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) Methodology
Author: S.K. Mishra
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401701474
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 535
Book Description
The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) curve number (CN) method is one of the most popular methods for computing the runoff volume from a rainstorm. It is popular because it is simple, easy to understand and apply, and stable, and accounts for most of the runoff producing watershed characteristics, such as soil type, land use, hydrologic condition, and antecedent moisture condition. The SCS-CN method was originally developed for its use on small agricultural watersheds and has since been extended and applied to rural, forest and urban watersheds. Since the inception of the method, it has been applied to a wide range of environments. In recent years, the method has received much attention in the hydrologic literature. The SCS-CN method was first published in 1956 in Section-4 of the National Engineering Handbook of Soil Conservation Service (now called the Natural Resources Conservation Service), U. S. Department of Agriculture. The publication has since been revised several times. However, the contents of the methodology have been nonetheless more or less the same. Being an agency methodology, the method has not passed through the process of a peer review and is, in general, accepted in the form it exists. Despite several limitations of the method and even questionable credibility at times, it has been in continuous use for the simple reason that it works fairly well at the field level.
