Abstract

We investigate the influence of spatial rainfall distribution on hillslope soil erosion through laboratory experiments. Two distinct spatial distributions are examined in this study, i.e., rainfall concentrated on central area versus upper area of hillslope. During the entire period of 8 hours for each experiment, direct runoff, subsurface flow, and sediment yield are measured at high temporal resolution (10 minutes). Compared to the case that rainfalll concentrated on central area, upstream concentrated rainfall results in lower peak of the sediment yield curve while greater cumulative sediment yield. Cumulative sediment yield increases over time linearly but its growth rate shows a sudden decrease at around 2 hours. This should be taken into consideration when temporal variability of sediment yield is estimated from observed total amount, and demonstrates the necessity of measuring sediment yield at high temporal resolution.

본 연구에서는 강우의 공간분포에 따른 토사유출의 특성을 토조 실험을 통해 탐구하였다. 강우의 공간분포는 강우 집중위치를 사면의 중앙부와 상류부로 각각 설정함으로 조정하였다. 토사유출의 시간적 변동성을 충분히 포착하기 위해 장시간(8 시간)의 실험시간 동안 높은 시간해상도(10 분)로 직접유출량, 지하수유출량, 토사유출량을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 강우를 토조의 상류부에 위치시킬수록 토사유출량곡선의 첨둣값은 감소하고 누적토사유출량은 증가하였다. 누적토사유출량은 시간에 따라 선형적으로 증가하였으나, 그 증가율이 2 시간을 기준으로 급격히 감소하였다. 이러한 점은 현재 총량 위주로 기록되어있는 토사유출 실측자료를 사용함에 있어 고려해야 할 사항이라고 결론지을 수 있다. 본 연구 결과는 또한, 향후의 토사유출량 실측은 높은 시간해상도로 측정될 필요가 있음을 시사한다.
