为探究喀斯特高原山地不同土地利用类型土壤抗冲性及其与土壤物理性质的关系,以马尾松人工林地(PMP)、桂花人工林地(OFP)、天然乔灌混交林地(ASL)、天然草地(NGL)、撂荒地(AL)、农地(CL)为研究对象,采用原状土水槽冲刷试验法,根据研究区地形及气候特点,设置3个坡度(5°,15°,25°),3个冲刷流量(3.2,4.8,6.4 L/min),冲刷时间均为15 min,结合土壤物理性质(容重、孔隙度、水稳性团聚体、机械组成等),定量分析不同土地利用类型下土壤抗冲性及其与土壤物理性质的关系。结果表明:(1)在原状土冲刷试验过程中,各地类初始径流含沙量较高,但随着冲刷时间的延长,径流含沙量呈先降低后趋于稳定趋势,且随着坡度和冲刷流量的增大,径流含沙量趋于稳定的时间有所提前;(2)土壤抗冲系数随坡度和冲刷流量的增大而减小,且坡度对土壤抗冲性的影响比冲刷流量更明显。在同等条件下,各地类土壤抗冲系数依次为NGL＞PMP＞ASL＞AL＞OFP＞CL,土壤抗冲系数分别为13.44~87.84,[JP]8.14~93.15,2.93~45.36,1.21~10.01,1.25~5.48,0.17~1.27(L·min)/g;(3)土壤抗冲性与土壤容重、砂粒含量、水稳性团聚体含量呈极显著正相关(P＜0.01),与总孔隙度、黏粒含量呈显著负相关(P＜0.05),其关系均可用幂函数表示(R²＞0.78)。研究结果可为喀斯特区土壤侵蚀研究和水土保持防治提供科学依据。     

降雨、积雪以及土地利用复合影响下的额尔齐斯河流域土壤侵蚀分析

在我国西北高寒山区,冰冻圈环境导致土壤侵蚀过程更为复杂。因此,以新疆阿尔泰山额尔齐斯河流域为例,构建模型模拟典型流域降雨、融雪和土地利用变化(LUCC)综合影响下的土壤侵蚀过程,并揭示复合因素影响下土壤侵蚀的放大作用。为此采用InVEST模型分别对2000年、2005年、2010年和2015年土壤侵蚀空间分布进行了详细模拟,并建立了3种情景用于复合影响的分析,分别为降雨和土地利用变化、降雨和融雪变化以及降雨、融雪和土地利用变化对土壤侵蚀的复合影响。结果表明:(1)相较于2000年,2005—2015年3种情景土地利用分别发生1.67%,2.02%和4.19%的变化,使整个流域土壤侵蚀量比单一降雨侵蚀分别增加3.49%,3.02%和3.31%。(2)尽管2000—2015年降雪量仅占年降水量的30.49%,23.10%,38.46%和35.26%,但是融雪的出现致使流域土壤侵蚀量分别增加249.00%,88.00%,843.00%和566.00%,年平均侵蚀量增加了2 008.03万t,降雨和融雪情景下侵蚀量是单一降雨侵蚀量的4.2倍。(3)在融雪的背景下进一步考虑土地利用影响,2000—2015年土壤侵蚀量在此基础上又分别增加了2.99%,2.16%和3.50%。研究结果为寒区融雪影响土壤侵蚀提供了新的证据,为后续寒区水土保持提供了基础理论认知。     

含结构体工程堆积体土壤侵蚀研究

为探究野外实际调查中常见的含结构体工程堆积体土壤侵蚀过程,设计含结构体工程堆积体和对照组2种试验材料（对照组为不含结构体工程堆积体,后文中对2种试验材料简称为结构体和堆积体）,通过室内模拟降雨试验,研究了结构体和堆积体坡面径流侵蚀特征与雨强和场次的关系。结果表明：（1）初产历时随雨强和场次的增加而减小,结构体对初产历时有延缓作用,这与结构体的土壤特性和下垫面特征有关;（2）平均径流率和平均流速均随雨强和场次的增加而增大,堆积体平均流速和平均径流率分别是结构体的1.11~1.22,1.11~1.37倍,而结构体流速和径流率快速增加和趋于稳定的时间均较堆积体提前,且用时更短;（3）雨强对侵蚀速率、流速和径流率的贡献率较大,场次与侵蚀速率负相关,各条件下结构体的侵蚀速率均大于堆积体,且侵蚀速率和总侵蚀量分别是堆积体的1.03~2.15,1.36~2.63倍;（4）径流功率能够更好地描述结构体和堆积体侵蚀动力过程,结构体发生侵蚀的临界径流剪切力和径流功率均小于堆积体。

Rainfall erosivity and erosivity density through rainfall synthetic series for São Paulo State,Brazil: Assessment,regionalization and modeling

Rainfall is the main cause of erosion of Brazilian soils, which makes assessing the rainfall erosivity factor (RE) and the erosivity density (ED) fundamental for soil and water conservation. Therefore, the objectives of this study were: i) to estimate the RE and ED for São Paulo State, Brazil, using synthetic series of pluviographic data; ii) to define homogeneous regions regarding rainfall erosivity; and iii) to generate regression models for rainfall erosivity estimates in each of the homogeneous regions. Synthetic series of pluviographic data were initially obtained on a sub-daily scale from the daily rainfall records of 696 rainfall gauges. The RE values were then estimated from the synthetic rainfall data, and ED was calculated from the relationship between erosivity and rainfall amounts. Monthly and annual maps for RE and ED were obtained. Hierarchical clustering analysis was used to define homogeneous regions in terms of rainfall erosivity, and regionalized regression models for estimating RE were generated. The results demonstrate high spatial variability of RE in São Paulo, where the highest annual values were observed in the coastal region. December to March concentrate approximately 60% of the intra-annual erosivity. The highest values of annual ED were observed in regions with intense agricultural activity. The definition of five homogeneous regions concerning the rainfall erosive potential evidenced distinct seasonal patterns of the spatial distribution of erosivity. Finally, the high predictive accuracy of the regionalized models obtained characterizes them as essential tools for reliable estimates of rainfall erosivity, and contribute to better soil conservation planning.     

Determination of rill erodibility and critical shear stress of saturated purple soil slopes

The hydrological conditions near the soil surface influence the soil erosion process, as determined by the soil erodibility and critical shear stress. The soil erodibility and critical shear stress of saturated purple soil slopes were computed and compared with those of unsaturated purple soil slopes. The detachment capacities computed through the numerical method (NM), modified numerical method (MNM) and analytical method (AM), from rill erosion experiments on saturated purple soil slopes at different flow rates (2, 4, and 8 L min^?1) and slope gradients (5, 10, 15, and 20°), were used to comparatively compute the soil erodibility and critical shear stress. The computed soil erodibilities and critical shear stresses were also compared with those of unsaturated purple soil slopes. At the different slope gradients ranging from 5° to 20°, there were no significant differences in the soil erodibilities of the saturated purple soil and also in those of the unsaturated purple soil. The critical shear stresses slightly varied with the slope gradients. The saturated purple soil was relatively significantly more susceptible to erosion. The NM overestimated the soil erodibility of both saturated and unsaturated soils by 31% and underestimated the critical shear stress. The MNM yielded the same soil erodibility and critical shear stress values as the AM. The results of this study supply parameters for modeling rill erosion of saturated purple soil slope.     

Conservation management decreases surface runoff and soil erosion

Conservation management practices – including agroforestry, cover cropping, no-till, reduced tillage, and residue return – have been applied for decades to control surface runoff and soil erosion, yet results have not been integrated and evaluated across cropping systems. In this study we collected data comparing agricultural production with and without conservation management strategies. We used a bootstrap resampling analysis to explore interactions between practice type, soil texture, surface runoff, and soil erosion. We then used a correlation analysis to relate changes in surface runoff and soil erosion to 13 other soil health and agronomic indicators, including soil organic carbon, soil aggregation, infiltration, porosity, subsurface leaching, and cash crop yield. Across all conservation management practices, surface runoff and erosion had respective mean decreases of 67% and 80% compared with controls. Use of cover cropping provided the largest decreases in erosion and surface runoff, thus emphasizing the importance of maintaining continuous vegetative cover on soils. Coarse- and medium-textured soils had greater decreases in both erosion and runoff than fine-textured soils. Changes in surface runoff and soil erosion under conservation management were highly correlated with soil organic carbon, aggregation, porosity, infiltration, leaching, and yield, showing that conservation practices help drive important interactions between these different facets of soil health. This study offers the first large-scale comparison of how different conservation agriculture practices reduce surface runoff and soil erosion, and at the same time provides new insight into how these interactions influence the improvement or loss of soil health.
