경사지 밭에서 발생하는 토양유실 저감을 위한 피복재 적용

초록

To measure effects of surface cover on runoff and sediment discharge reduction using rainfall simulator, four(5 m×30 m scale) plot experiments were conducted in this study. Surface covers made with straw mat, Polyacrylamide (PAM), chaff, and sawdust were simulated 4 times under 31.1～44.4 mm/hr rainfall intensities. Compared with results from control plot, the time of runoff generation is delayed and outflow volume decreased with surface cover. Effects on runoff reduction of straw mat, PAM, sawdust and chaff ranged 4.7～81.5 % and runoff rate reduced by 6.5～76.1 % respectively, when compared with those from control plot. The percentage of decrease in sediment discharge were 99.7～99.8 % from straw mat＋sawdust＋PAM plots, 85.9～95.6 % from straw mat＋PAM plots,and 98.5～99.4 % from straw mat＋chaff＋PAM plots. The runoff, sediment discharge, and SS concentration reduction efficiencies of the cover materials were outstanding when compared to control plot. It was analyzed that reduction of runoff and sediment discharge were mainly contributed by decrease in rainfall energy impact and flow velocity and increase of infiltration due to the surface cover materials. The results could be used as a base for the development of best management practices (BMPs) to reduce runoff, sediment discharge from sloping field.
