Concept explainers

Sediment transport

Sediment transport or Soil transport is the movement of solid particles, usually due to the combination of gravitational forces acting on the sediment, and the movement of the liquid at which the sediment enters. Soil erosion occurs in natural systems where the particles are sandstones (sand, rocks), mud, or clay; the liquid is air, water, or ice; and the gravitational force that works to move particles to the landing surface. Sediment transportation or soil migration due to the movement of liquids occurs in rivers, lakes, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water as a result of currents and waves. Transportation is also caused by glaciers as they flow, and to places on earth under the influence of wind. Soil erosion due to gravity alone is possible in most sloping areas, including hills, scarves, cliffs, and the continental shelf — the continental boundary of the slope.

A small shallow reservoir has a surface area of 150 square meters is used to estimate the average daily evaporation. The average values of climate parameters during a week are the following: water temperature is 34 degrees Celsuis, relative humidity of 0.3, wind velocity at 1.0 meter above ground surface is 4.444 m/s. Use the Meyer's formula to get the average daily evaporation. Also, compute the total volume of water lost due to evaporation daily.
Problem 4. A storm with constant rainfall intensity (i = 12 mm per hour, duration TD = 6 hours) precipitates on a soil surface with an initial moisture deficit A0 = 0.32. The conductivity and the wetting front suction head of the soil are K = 6 mm/hr and =15 mm, respectively. (1) If there is no surface ponding at the beginning of precipitation, please estimate the time it takes for water to pond on the surface (tp). (2) Estimate the cumulative infiltration depth (F) at the ponding time. (3) If rainfall intensity were much higher, and surface ponding occurred immediately as precipitation started, please estimate the time it took to infiltrate F = 4.8 mm, and the infiltration rate (f) at that time.
