Major Research Content
1) The runoff model: to improve the SCS-CN model from three aspects of the model structure, rainfall intensity and soil water content calculation, respectively, and develop new rainfall-runoff forecast model;
2)The soil loss model: to modify the CSLE by developing a new rainfall–runoff erosivity factor to predict storm-based soil loss on the Loess Plateau and validated the new factor with a range of measurements conducted at plots with different soil, land-use, and vegetation types;
3) nutrient loss model: to propose a framework to integrate the developed nutrient loss models, the modified CSLE model and the SCS-CN model to predict the particulate and soluble nutrient losses, and has been validated with the data collected from literature including 330 storm events with the experimental measurements in runoff, sediment, and nutrient losses conducted at slope scale on Loess Plateau;
4) watershed model:to develop a modified version of SWAT, defined as LP-SWAT, by embedding the modified SCS-CN, CSLE and nutrient loss module into SWAT model to predict runoff, sediment and runoff-associated nutrient losses on the Loess Plateau and to identify the spatial and temporal variation of the sediment and nutrient loss.
