Scenario simulation of runoff and sediment processes in the small catchment in the Hilly-gully region of Loess Plateau
Based on the runoff and sediment yield mathmatical model for the Chabagou catchment in Hilly-gully region,a typical small catchment in the middle stream of Yellow River,was selected to simulate the runoff and sediment yield under several various possible situations.Firstly three designing precipitation schemes with the occurring period of 100,50 and 10 years respectively were computed and used in runoff and sediment yield simulation.Then three vegetation cover schemes were used in the scenario simulation.Results indicate: 1) The flood and sediment transport peak for the designing-strom event with 100-year period(
P
=0.01) is 805 m
3
/s and 775×103 kg/s,it is 595 m
3
/s,502×103 kg/s for those of 50-year period(
P
=0.02) and 108 m
3
/s,121×103 kg/s for those of 10-year period(
P
=0.1),It can be inferred that the occurring period of 19890701 storm event is between 100 and 50 years according to the simulation results;2) The positive impacts of vegetation coverage on reduction of water yield and soil erosion of catchment are detected,in which,reduction of 73% and 84% for water yield and sediment yield with 25% decreasing of vegetation coverage are identified,whilst,the simulated water and sediment yield will increase by 29.9% and 18.6% if the study catchment suffers 25% decreasing of vegetation coverage.The results of this investigation will be greatly benificial to regional,soil and water conservation planning and designing in Hilly-gully region.

Effects of slope grade and cover of
Robinia pseudoacacia
on runoff and soil loss from loess slopes under simulated rainfall
The experiment of simulated rainfall was carried out by using the soil taken from the artificial forest of
Robinia pseudoacacia
from Caijiachuan of Jixian County of Shanxi Province in the Loess Plateau.The young trees of
Robinia pseudoacacia
were planted as a vegetation cover for the experiment slopes.The amount of runoff and soil erosion was collected from slopes of different slope grades with the cover of
Robinia pseudoacacia
.The results showed that under a given condition of certain rainfall intensity and slope grade,with increasing of slope grade,the generation of runoff and soil loss starts earlier,the runoff velocity is higher,the crown interception percentage and the runoff amount increases,the soil loss yield increases;The relation between the crown interception of forest and the slope grade is
I
=29.556
α
-0.311
(
R
2
=0.987 4),and the relation between the soil loss from covered slope and the slope grade is
W
=0.116 84
α
3.005 9
(
R
2
=0.979 5);Under the same condition of slope grade,the runoff and soil loss from
Robinia pseudoacacia
covered slope is less than that from the bare soil slopes,showing a difference of 15%-25% in the average velocity of runoff,15%-48% in runoff,10%-117% in soil loss,55.5%-133% in the average sediment concentration.

Fractal features of soil aggregate structure under different land use in the Hilly-gully region of Loess Plateau
The status of soil aggregates,water stable aggregates and microaggregates are important factors affecting soil structures and features.Based on the fractal theory,the fractal dimension of soil aggregates and microaggregates structure under seven different land use types in Zhifang Hilly-gully region was studied.The results showed that: the fractal dimension of the upper layer(0 to 20 cm) soil aggregate structure under these seven land use types ranged from 1.641 to 2.114.The fractal dimension of soil aggregate of artificial meadow was highest,followed by orchard,slope crop-land,arbor forest land,shrub land,natural meadow and artificial terrace.The fractal dimension of water stable soil aggregate ranged from 1.744 to 2.384,the fractal dimension of orchard water stable soil aggregate of artificial meadow was highest,followed by arbor forest land,artificial meadow,slope crop-land,natural meadow,artificial terrace and shrub land.Both of the conditions showed the same law: The lower total amount of the soil aggregates(more than 0.25 mm) was,the higher fractal dimension was.There were remarkable negative correlation between the fractal dimension and not less than 5 mm, 5 to 2 mm and not less than 0.25 mm soil aggregates and water stable aggregates contents.But significant positive correlation with less than 0.25 mm soil aggregates.Considered the rate of soil structural damage,the soil structure and stability of shrub land was the highest,the next was natural meadow,artificial meadow was the lowest among these seven land use types.In the upper soil layer (0 to 20 cm) the range of fractal dimension of soil microaggregate was 2.360 to 2.487.The fractal dimension of soil microaggregate of natural meadow was highest,followed by arbor forest land,slope crop-land,artificial terrace,artificial meadow,orchard,and shrub land was the lowest of that.It was showed that shrub land and natural meadow were beneficial to forming soil microaggregates. The correlation analysis results showed that fractal dimension had remarkable negative correlation with 0.25 to 0.05 mm and more than 0.001 mm microaggregates,also had positive correlation with less than 0.001 mm microaggates.But the soil texture of lower layers(20 to 60 cm) were relevant to the parent material and little affected by human beings activities.There existed significant positive correlation among three fractal dimensions(
P
<0.05),also had negative correlation between soil organic matter and fractal dimensions(
P
<0.05).The fractal dimension could be one of the indices of soil quantity evaluation.The fractal theory was also considered as a new tool to research on the soil structure and features.

Effects of contour hedgerow on soil physical properties in the Three gorges reservoir area
Contour hedgerow is a very common and effective technique around the world,which is employed to revegetate on cultivated slope land and conserve water and soil resources.Contour hedgerow is considered an effective way of sustainable development of agroecosystem in the Three gorges reservoir area.Alluvial soils in front of hedges(
Leucaena leucocephala
and
Vitex negundo
) were taken as the objects,to evaluate the effects on soil water and physical properties from different distances to hedgerows(ridge) at different soil depths by contour hedgerow agriculture compound planting on slope land.The results showed that non-capillary porosity of soil,saturated hydraulic conductivity,saturated water content and natural water content in the hedgerows treatments were higher than in the rocky ridge terrace treatment,while the soil bulk density and field capacity in the hedgerows treatments were lower than in the rocky ridge terrace treatment,which reflected that the effects on water and soil conservation by hedgerows are significant,especially in the top and second layer.Based on the same depth, with the extending of the distance to hedgerows(ridge),in the hedgerows treatments soil bulk density and natural water content increased gradually,and noncapillary porosity of soil,saturated hydraulic conductivity and saturated water content decreased gradually,while no apparent change in the rocky ridge terrace treatment.With the deepening of the soil layer,in each treatment soil bulk density and natural water content increased gradually,and non-capillary porosity of soil,saturated hydraulic conductivity and saturated water content decreased gradually accordingly,and their differences among treatments were also lessened gradually.The distance to hedgerow(ridge) reflected the degree of effects on soil water and physical properties by hedgerow indirectly.The closer to hedgerow is,the greater the effects are.Comparing treatments of Leucaena leucocephala and Vitex negundo,their effects were equivalent.

Traits of water ecotypes and life-form spectrum of vegetation under canopy of
Robinia pseudoacacia
forests
Robinia pseudoacacia
is one of the main tree species for afforestation on Loess Plateau.To gian a better understanding of the impacts that
Robinia pseudoacacia
do to undergrowth,we investigated species components,water ecotypes and life-form spectrum of vegetation under Robinia pseudoacacia forest stands with different age in forest-steppe zone on Loess Plateau.We learned that,although
Robinia pseudoacacia
over-consumed soil water and soil tend to dry, vegetation changed from xeromorphic to mesophyte vegetation,and vegetation succession under
Robinia pseudoacacia
canopy had a similar process to natural succession on abandoned farmlands.From species components,it had no xeromorphic trend.Different from succession series on abandoned farmland,Bothriochloa ischaemum,as a constructive species in native plant communities,didn't become dominant species in all plots.Along with age growth,two distinct synusias emerged under
Robinia pseudoacacia
canopy.One was the Chamaephytes synusias dominated by vermuth suffruticose such as Artemisia gmelinii,and the other was the Hemicryptophytes synusias dominated by perennial gramineous hemicryptophyte such as Stipa bungeana.It is concluded that natural succession of undergrowth was not fundamentally changed by the growth of
Robinia pseudoacacia
.It was feasible to select
Robinia pseudoacacia
as a pioneer tree specie to restore vegetation in local region.

Advance of research on the rainfall simulators for soil erosion
Rainfall simulation is widely used for the experimental study on soil and water conservation.This paper reviews the characteristics,application,and prospect of rainfall simulator.The simulators could be divided into two main groups: the non-pressurised rainfall simulators,including the thread droppers and the needle droppers with drop formers primarily made of wool fibres or hypodermic needles,and the pressurised water rainfall simulators,including the spout and the sprayer,of which raindrops sprayed out of a row of spouts on the pipe or a nozzle under pressure.The former could be hardly found at present due to its drawback that the minimum size of drop produced is far larger and more even than most natural rainfall and the simulator could not easily generate rains with the similar energy to the natural one.Rainfall simulation halls with automatic operation and observation systems are booming in these years,but the basic simulators will not be completely replaced in virtue of the cheap price and convenient manipulation.

It is very important for soil-vegetation-atmosphere transfer models(SVAT model) to study the interaction and relationship among precipitation,vegetation water storage,surface water,soil water,and ground water,the process of vegetation water consumption and the regulation of ecological water demand,the feedback mechanism between ecosystem and local climate,the mechanism of reciprocity between vegetation and soil water,and the restoration and rehabilitation of ecological environment.SVAT models have been improved from single canopy models to double canopies or multiple canopies models through 3 stages development of bucket model,biophysics model and biochemistry model for about 50 years.The experts abroad and home have made many kinds of SVAT models based on a great deal of experiments and this models were verified,evaluated and modified in many regions all over the world.This paper summarized the parameterization schemes for main water and heat process,application,researches,comparison,and improvement in parameterization schemes of SVAT models,and put forward some problems to improve and perfect existing SVAT models,mainly including the offsetting of Underlying Surface,the simplification,validation,and comparison about SVAT models.
