What factors affect infiltration?
Slope angle of ground surfaceHydraulic conductivity of soil (higher this value, greater infiltration)Presence of vegetation cover (presence of vegetation reduces infiltration rate)Density of vegetation cover (sometimes referred to as leaf area index - higher this value, lower infiltration)
How does vegetation allow greater infiltration?
how does vegetation allow greater infiltration
How does a deciduous forest affect the river discharge?
Infiltration, Infiltration, Percolation
How does porosity affect infiltration?
Porosity affects infiltration because it determines the speed of the infiltration whether it will be fast or not
How do earhquakes affect vegetation?
Earthquakes affect vegetation by causing the vegetation to uproot. This may cause many vegetation to die off.
How does urbanization paving etc affect runoff and infiltration in a small previously forested drainage basin?
Infiltration decreases; runnoff increases
How would water infiltration be affected by replanting vegetation?
By replanting vegetation, the speed of precipitation is reduced, giving the ground more time to absorb the water which would be stored on Earth's surface.
How does evaporation affect drainage systems in desert areas?
evapoation and soil infiltration.
What will be the relationship between infiltration and runoff in a region with a moderate slope that has a permeable surface material covered with sparse vegetation?
Um, you might get more answers, if it was English.
How does vegetation affect erosion?
It decreases the erosion.
How does vegetation affect the formation of soil?
Vegetation rots down and creates humus which improves soil structure.
What are the influencing factors of surface run off?
Run-off vs Infiltration Run-off influencing Factors: Wet soil, impermeable rock (acquiclude) heavy rain, steep slope or gradient, less vegetation cover, erosion, artificial land surfaces I.e Tar Infiltration influencing factors: Dry soil, permeable rock (acquifer) , soft rain, gentle or gradual gradient, vegetation cover,
