Comparison of different types of medium scale field rainfall simulators
Original language description
Rainfall simulators are used in numerous experiments to study runoff and soil erosion characteristics. However, they usually differ in their construction details, rainfall generation, plot size and other technical parameters. As field experiments using medium to large scale rainfall simulators (plot length 3 - 8 m) are very much time and labor consuming, close cooperation of individual teams and comparability of results is highly desirable to enlarge the database of results. Two experimental campaigns were organized to compare three field rainfall simulators of similar scale (plot size), but with different technical parameters. The results were then compared, to identify parameters that are crucial for soil loss and surface runoff formation and test ifresults from individual devices can be reliably compared. The rainfall simulators compared were: field rainfall simulator of CTU Prague (the Czech Republic) (Kavka et al., 2012; EGU2015-11025), field simulator of BAW (Austria) (Strauss e
