Monitoring and modelling of hydrological processes in the semiarid region of Brazil: The Cariri experimental basins

Catchments have highly variable yields of runoff and soil erosion. The size, land use and the surface cover play a significant role and influence the catchment response and parameter values of simulation models. Two experimental basins—the Cariri basins—were equipped in a semi-arid region of Brazil, for obtaining runoff and sediment yield at different catchment scales, as well as, to evaluate the influence of the land use and surface cover. In the first basin, located in the municipality of Sumé, the field studies were carried out at two different scales: four micro-catchments with an area of around 0.5 ha and nine standard Wischmeier-type erosion plots of 100 m². The experimental units had varied vegetation and management. They were subjected only to natural rainfall events, and were monitored from 1982 to 1991. The total runoff and total sediment yield were determined for each of the events. The installations in the second basin, in the municipality of São João do Cariri, from 1999, include two erosion plots, three micro-catchments, and two sub-catchments of a small basin. These basins are still being monitored for runoff and sediment production. Among the micro-catchments two are nested to detect any scale effect at the micro-catchment level. Nearly 600 events of precipitation, that produced runoff in at least one of the experimental units, have been registered. These data have been used to evaluate the influence of various factors, including cultivation practices and to calibrate hydrological models for plots and micro-catchments. Parameters have been tested by means of cross validations among micro-catchments and sub-catchments. The data sets are made available to all the catchment hydrology researchers and others at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4690886 .     

Topographically moderated soil water seasons impact vegetation dynamics in semiarid mountain catchments: Illustrations from the Dry Creek Experimental Watershed,Idaho, USA

Water stored in soils, in part, controls vegetation productivity and the duration of growing seasons in wildland ecosystems. Soil water is the dynamic product of precipitation, evapotranspiration and soil properties, all of which vary across complex terrain making it challenging to decipher the specific controls that soil water has on growing season dynamics. We assess how soil water use by plants varies across elevations and aspects in the Dry Creek Experimental Watershed in southwest Idaho, USA, a mountainous, semiarid catchment that spans low elevation rain to high elevation snow regimes. We compare trends in soil water and soil temperature with corresponding trends in insolation, precipitation and vegetation productivity, and we observe trends in the timing, rate and duration of soil water extraction by plants across ranges in elevation and aspect. The initiation of growth-supporting conditions, indicated by soil warming, occurs 58 days earlier at lower, compared with higher, elevations. However, growth-supporting conditions also end earlier at lower elevations due to the onset of soil water depletion 29 days earlier than at higher elevations. A corresponding shift in peak NDVI timing occurs 61 days earlier at lower elevations. Differences in timing also occur with aspect, with most threshold timings varying by 14–30 days for paired north- and south-facing sites at similar elevations. While net primary productivity nearly doubles at higher elevations, the duration of the warm-wet period of active water use does not vary systematically with elevation. Instead, the greater ecosystem productivity is related to increased soil water storage capacity, which supports faster soil water use and growth rates near the summer solstice and peak insolation. Larger soil water storage does not appear to extend the duration of the growing season, but rather supports higher growing season intensity when wet-warm soil conditions align with high insolation. These observations highlight the influence of soil water storage capacity in dictating ecological function in these semiarid steppe climatic regimes.     

Temporal variation of soil erosion resistance on sloping farmland during the growth stages of maize (Zea mays L.)

Maize growth has great effects on soil properties and thus likely induces the changes in soil erosion resistance on sloping farmland. However, temporal variation of soil erosion resistance during the growth stages of maize is still unclear in the mountainous yellow soil area where maize is the dominant crop. In this study, four maize plots (MP) and four bare land plots (CK) were conducted to investigate soil erosion resistance, and multiple indicators of soil erosion resistance were measured including the total soil anti-scourability (TAS), mean weight diameter (MWD), soil erodibility K factor and soil shear strength (SH). A comprehensive soil erosion resistance index (CSERI) was employed to quantify the temporal variation of soil erosion resistance during the growth stages of maize (seedling stage, SS; jointing stage, JS; tasselling stage, TS; maturing stage, MS). The results showed that TAS, MWD, SH increased significantly with maize growth and SH decreased when at MS. But K factor decreased significantly over time. CSERI increased significantly during the growth stages of maize and the CSERI of JS, TS, MS increased on average by 74.72, 180.68 and 234.57% than that of SS. Compared to CK, CSERI of MP increased by 49.90, 66.82, 55.60 and 38.61% during the growth stages of maize. The temporal variation of soil erosion resistance was closely related to the changes in maize cover, maize roots and soil organic carbon. The findings demonstrated that it is necessary to consider the temporal variation of soil erosion resistance in the mountainous yellow soil area.     

单级等速加载下高压缩性软土非线性大应变固结解析解EI北大核心CSCD

饱和软土大应变固结理论涉及复杂的材料非线性和几何非线性问题,致使其解析解很难获得,但非线性大应变固结模型解析解的工程意义却不言而喻。目前土体非线性压缩和渗透特性通常采用e-1gσ’和e-1gkv(e为孔隙比,σ’为有效应力,kv为渗透系数)非线性关系描述。但大量室内固结渗透试验的结果表明,高压缩性软土发生较大应变时该非线性关系不再适用,而1g(1+e)-1gσ’和1g(1+e)-1gkv非线性关系却能有效描述高压缩性软土的有效应力、渗透系数与孔隙比间的非线性变化规律。基于此,建立了变荷载下高压缩性软土一维非线性大应变固结模型,并给出特定参数下该固结模型的精确解析解和普适条件下固结模型的近似解析解。将应用固结模型计算的沉降曲线与室内等速加载下的试验沉降曲线对比,验证了该解析理论的可靠性。在此基础上,通过大量的计算研究参数Ic和α、外荷载和加荷速率对固结性状的影响。结果表明:压缩指数Ic一定时,α越小,土层的固结速率越快,底部超静孔压消散越快;α一定时,Ic越小,土层的固结速率越快,底部超静孔压消散越快。按沉降定义的平均固结度Ust一般大于按孔压定义的平均固结度Upt,即沉降的发展速率要快于孔压消散速率。Ic(α-2)>1时,土层的沉降速率随外荷载的增加而减慢;Ic(α-2)<1时,土层的沉降速率随外荷载的增加而加快;Ic(α-2)=1时,土层的沉降速率与外荷载的大小无关。外荷载一定时,土层的平均固结速率随加荷速率增大而加快,同一深度处的超静孔压随加载速率增大而减小。     

基于气溶胶激光雷达观测的人工消减雾霾作业效果分析

利用气溶胶激光雷达观测的消光系数数据,对2019年12月北疆沿天山的石河子市开展人工消减雾霾作业效果进行分析,主要采用了符号检验、成对秩和检验等非参数性检验法,以及参数性t检验法等人工影响天气的物理统计检验方法,得出了基于气溶胶激光雷达消光系数为依据的人工消减雾霾作业效果。结果为:符号检验法检验得出飞机人工消减雾霾作业后20 min,400 m以下不同高度消光系数平均值减小的可信度达到非常显著的99.5%,进一步按照95%的可信度阈值得出减小值为0.05,减小率为9.8%;成对秩和检验法得出的作业正效果可信度达到97.5%,很显著;但是参数性t检验得出作业正效果的可信度只有90%~80%,未达到99.5%的阈值,显著性一般。这与作业采用了不同类型的催化剂如只用吸湿性干粉催化剂,以及播撒作业高度偏高导致作为样本的消光系数变化效果不能满足检验效率相关。进一步分析表明,飞机人工消减雾霾作业后20 min,400 m以下不同高度消光系数的减小响应效果自上而下递减,这与人工影响作业播撒的催化剂作用的物理机制自上而下逐步响应的过程相一致。

Monitoring soil surface roughness under growing winter wheat with low-altitude UAV sensing: Potential and limitations

Soil surface roughness (SSR) is an important factor in controlling sediment and runoff generation, influencing directly a wide spectrum of erosion parameters. SSR is highly variable in time and space under natural conditions, and characterizing SSR to improve the parameterization of hydrological and erosion models has proved challenging. Our study uses recent technological and algorithmic developments in capturing and processing close aerial sensing data to evaluate how high-resolution imagery can assist the temporally and spatially explicit monitoring of SSR. We evaluated the evolution of SSR under natural rainfall and growing vegetation conditions on two arable fields in Denmark. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry was used to monitor small field plots over 7 months after seeding of winter wheat following conventional and reduced tillage treatments. Field campaigns were conducted at least once a month from October until April, resulting in nine time steps of data acquisition. Structure from motion photogrammetry was used to derive high-resolution point clouds with an average ground sampling distance of 2.7 mm and a mean ground control point accuracy of 1.8 mm. A comprehensive workflow was developed to process the point clouds, including the detection of vegetation and the removal of vegetation-induced point cloud noise. Rasterized and filtered point clouds were then used to determine SSR geostatistically as the standard deviation of height, applying different kernel sizes and using semivariograms. The results showed an influence of kernel size on roughness, with a value range of 0.2–1 cm of average height deviation during the monitoring period. Semivariograms showed a measurable decrease in sill variance and an increase in range over time. This research demonstrated multiple challenges to measuring SSR with UAV under natural conditions with increasing vegetation cover. The proposed workflow represents a step forward in tackling those challenges and provides a knowledge base for future research. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Viscosity effect on consolidation of poroelastic soil due to groundwater table depression

In this study, the viscosity effect on consolidation of poroelastic soil due to groundwater table depression is examined. A viscoelastic consolidation numerical model is developed to conduct this examination. By nondimensionalizing the governing equations the viscosity number that depends on hydraulic conductivity, viscous moduli, and thickness of soil is obtained to represent the viscosity effect on consolidation of poroelastic soil. The case of clay stratum sandwiched between sandy strata subjected to sudden and gradual groundwater table depressions is used to investigate the importance of viscosity effect to poroelastic consolidation. The results show that the displacement and pore water pressure of clay stratum are strongly related to the viscosity effect. The overestimation of soil displacement will occur if the viscosity effect is neglected. Hence, the viscosity effect needs to be considered in modeling consolidation of poroelastic soil under groundwater table depression.     

土层厚度对紫色土坡地生产力的影响

通过紫色土坡地土层厚度的调查与不同土层厚度的小区对比试验,研究紫色土薄层坡地的生产力特性. 结果表明,约73%的紫色土坡耕地土层厚度为20-60 cm.土层厚度是紫色土生产力的基本限制条件.土层越薄, 作物株高、生物量和产量愈低,生产力愈低;土层越厚,生物量、产量愈高,生产力愈高,土层厚度的影响在玉米季尤 为突出,20 cm、40 cm小区夏玉米产量仅为60 cm小区的50%、74%,为80 cm小区的28%、40%,100 cm小区的23%、34%.当土壤厚度超过60 cm,小麦、玉米的株高、生物量及根重差异不显著,而土壤蓄水可抵御紫色丘陵区连续20 d的夏旱,因此,可初步判定60 cm土层为紫色土生产力临界土层.60cm以上厚度的紫色土可维持基本稳定的生产力水平.
