Effects of Ploughing Area on Soil and Water Loss Under Stimulated Rainfall Conditions
[Objective] The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of ploughing area on soil and water loss
in order to provide basis for soil and water loss in Loess Plateau.[Methods] By artificial rainfall experiments
we studied runoff and sediment yield characteristics at three different slopes with different ploughing area.[Results] The runoff and sediment yield characteristics of cultivated land were not only related to the slope
rainfall intensity and soil moisture content
but also closely related to ploughing area. Under the same slope gradient
the initial runoff occurring time was delayed and the sediment yield was increased with the increase of ploughing area. Under the same ploughing area
runoff and sediment yield rate showed an increasing trend with the increase of slope gradient. And runoff reached to the maximum when the slope was 15ånd the ploughing area was 50%. Under the same gradient
the sediment yield showed an increasing trend with the increase of ploughing area. When the slope gradient was 10°
ploughing area had the greatest influence on sediment yield
and the average sediment yield of ploughing treatment was 8.66 times of no-till treatment. The runoff had the most significant influence on the cumulative sediment yield when the slope gradient was 15°. Runoff rate under different ploughing area became stable approximately 10 min after the initial runoff occurring. Under different slope gradient
sediment production rate of full-tillage was the largest in whole-ploughing
while the smallest in no-till.[Conclusion] With the increasing of ploughing area
