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.

Hillslope Stability and Land Use
Author: Roy C. Sidle
Publisher: American Geophysical Union
ISBN: 0875903150
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 8
Book Description
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Water Resources Monograph Series, Volume 11. This monograph compiles research findings on soil mass movement into a format usable by practitioners and students. Applications are stressed in the areas of extensive and management practices rather than engineering earthworks. Examples are included to illustrate various prediction, avoidance, and control measures used in managing unstable terrain. We use the term soil (i.e., soil mass movement) to mean the mantle of unconsolidated or poorly consolidated material of either residual or transported origin, that overlies bedrock and forms the surface of the land. This usage is consistent with the conventional civil engineering use of the word and is synonymous with the geological term regolith and with soil mantle.

Process Studies in Hillslope Hydrology
Author: Malcolm G. Anderson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 560
Book Description
Of interest to both the theoretical modeling community and to the field researcher, it explores the major hydrological processes encountered in the field, in the laboratory and through computer modeling. As such, the text is seen as a major contribution in the search for initiatives linking hillslope hydrology modeling, field methods for parameterization and new conceptualization based on field observation. Among the many topics covered are: vegetation and hydroclimate, determination of hydraulic soil properties, soil water hysteresis, surface sealing and infiltration, overland flow and erosion, hydrogeochemistry of snow and snowmelt, subsurface runoff, solute transport in soils and runoff production in peat-covered catchments. Each chapter provides state of the art discussions and indicates areas where further research is needed.

Hillslope Hydrology: Theory and Practice
Author: Zach Vaughn
Publisher: Murphy & Moore Publishing
ISBN: 9781639873036
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Hydrology is the branch of science that is concerned with the movement and management of water on the surface of Earth, beneath the surface of Earth, as well as in the atmosphere. Hillslopes make up the flanks of valleys and the margins of eroding uplands. Hillslope hydrology is a scientific study to understand the hillslope runoff processes and the contribution of groundwater to storm runoff. Such hydrologic organization brings in distinct characteristics in soil and vegetation of hilltops, valleys and between sunny and shady slopes. The topographic gradients present on the hillslopes drive water, sediments and biogeochemical fluxes down the hillslopes. Hydrologic processes are traditionally studied at hillslope-to-catchment scales (tens of meters to kilometers). An important area of study in this field is the interplay of sediments, subsurface flow, soil erosion and overland flow. This book provides significant information of this discipline to help develop a good understanding of hillslope hydrology and its related fields. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this field have been included herein. This book will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this branch.
