Research on Characteristics of Slope Loss in Topsoil-bank with Different Coverage Measures
In order to reveal the effect of different coverage measures on the slope erosion of topsoil-bank
the simulated rainfall experiments were conducted in this study. Three coverage measure treatments
which were non-coverage (CK)
geonet-coverage and plant-coverage
were set on the topsoil-bank. The slope ratio of topsoil-bank was 1∶1.5 and the plant used in this study was Trifolium repens L. The rainfall intensities were 0.5,1.0,1.5 mm/min
respectively. The runoff and sediment yield law of the slope surface with the different coverage measures under the different rainfall intensities were studied. The results showed that the coverage measures had significant effects on slope erosion compared to CK under different rainfall intensities. The most runoff and sediment were produced in CK
followed by the geonet-coverage
and the least was plant-coverage. During the whole experiment
compared to CK
the geonet-coverage decreased the runoff by about 50%
while plant-coverage gave a more remarkable decrease (82%). Both geonet-coverage and plant-coverage treatments reduced sediment by more than 94%. In conclusion
coverage measures could inhibit the erosion of rain on the slope
and help reduce the runoff and sediment
among which the plant-coverage had a better role than geonet-coverage.
