  6. Model description The model has three major components • Overland flow (OF) is generated as infiltration excess rainfall (hortonian) • OF is routed using the depth averaged two dimensional unsteady flow equations on a finite difference grid • Rainfall and OF hydraulics are used to compute soil erosion A single representative particle size (D50) DYNAS Workshop, 6th-8th December 2004, INRIA

  43. Key results • Even in low relief plots, OF is not a sheet of flowing water, uniform in depth and velocity across the slope. OF concentrates downslope into deeper flow pathways • Small surface feature may play a major role in the OF production from a plot • A good reproduction of discharges at the outlet of a plot does not imply that OF hydraulics is correctly simulated • Infiltration is not homogeneous all over the plot which is partly due to the effect of micro-topography • Large variations in the OF hydraulics are due to the variable rainfall rates and to the characteristics of the uphill areas DYNAS Workshop, 6th-8th December 2004, INRIA
