## Abstract Afforestation has been suggested as a means of improving soil and water conservation in northβwestern China, especially on the Loess Plateau. Understanding of the hydrological responses to afforestation will help us develop sustainable watershed management strategies. A study was conduc

## Abstract The building of checkβdams is one of the most effective measures for the conservation of soil and water in the Loess Plateau of China, and the hydroβsedimentologic balance is the most important factor influencing the relative stability of the checkβdam systems. This means that the soil
## Abstract The Soil Conservation Service curve number (CN) method is widely used for predicting direct runoff from rainfall. However, despite the extent of cultivation on hillslope areas, very few attempts have been made to incorporate a slope factor into the CN method. The objectives of this stud
## Abstract Since the late 1950s a series of soil conservation practices have been implemented in the Loess Plateau. It is important to assess the impact of these practices on hydrology at the catchment scale. The Jialuhe River catchment, a tributary of the Yellow River, with a drainage area of 111
## Abstract The Soil Conservation Service curve number (CN) method commonly uses three discrete levels of soil antecedent moisture condition (AMC), defined by the 5βday antecedent rainfall depth, to describe soil moisture prior to a runoff event. However, this way may not adequately represent soil
