9781390496949 - Coshocton-Type Runoff Samplers: Laboratory Investigations (Classic Reprint) di Parsons, Donald A. (1 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details the laboratory investigations of a type of runoff sampler that efficiently separates small yet representative portions of a larger runoff flow. The Coshocton-Type Runoff Sampler, created by W.H. Pomerene in 1944, was first used to assess how various land use practices affect runoff and soil erosion, especially in agricultural areas. The author, a hydraulic engineer with the Soil Conservation Service, conducted 65 series of tests with the Coshocton-Type Runoff Sampler to determine its accuracy and reliability. The results of these tests, along with the author's insights and observations, are presented in this book. The book, therefore, is particularly useful for professionals like project supervisors, hydraulic engineers, and soil conservationists involved in developing effective land and water management strategies.
