Features on Gully Erosion and Tunnel Erosion in Loess Hilly and Gully Region
[Objective] In order to give effective data and decision supports for soil and water conservation work
this article ananlyzed the features of gully and tunnel erosion in the loess hilly and gully region of Northern China;[Methods] The present study was carried out in the Wangjiagou watershed and through historical materials
aerial photo interpretation and field investigations;[Results] (1) A total of 718 gullies and 948 tunnels are indentified in the study watershed. (2) On the basis of their location and topography
all the gullies are classfied into four types:headwater gully
hillside gully
valleyside gully and ephemeral river gully. Intricately affected by lithological composition
slope
human activities
etc
the four types gullies have significant variables in the spatial distribution. (3) Tunnels are associated with 43% of headwater gullies
51% of hillside gullies
6% of valleyside gullies and none of ephemeral river gullies. The headwater gullies and hillside gullies are the main area for development of tunnels.(4) The results show that statistically significant differences exist in gully length
area
cutting depth
runoff yield
and sediment yield of tunneled gullies are significantly greater than those of untunneled gullies;[Conclusion] The stuty suggest that soil erosion is dominnated by tunnel erosion
and gullies development is intricately affected by tunnel erosion in this area.
