Water Regime of the Soils of Small Watersheds with Different Forest Cover
Result description
Outflow of watersheds, particularly in respect to extreme hydrological conditions, is one of the most investigated phenomena in hydrology. Our study evaluates the water regime and focuses on transformation of precipitation into outflow from the soil profile. The water regime is examined in respect to the possible impact of the type of vegetation covering the watershed. The water regime was monitored at four experimental watersheds located in the Šumava mountains. To obtain more information about water transport in the soils simulations were run using the program S1D. The water regime of the soils is evaluated in relation to precipitation in four vegetation seasons during which extreme hydrological conditions were observed. Measurements and model provethat retention and accumulation of water at all studied watersheds are limited. The difference in vegetation cover and in hydraulic soil properties are not significant in respect to the outflow regime during extreme rainfall events.
