Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Transient Response of a Layered, Sloping Soil to Natural Rainfall in the Presence of a Shallow Water Table: Experimental Results
The area is characterized by long mountain ridges with -local relief of about 200 meters from valley ?oors to ridge tops. The ridges consist of sandstone, while interbedded shales and siltstones make up the slope and valley material. At the experimental site (fig. The angle of dip in the rock strata is about 30 degrees on both sides of the stream. Detailed de scription of the watershed geology exists(1). The evi dence presented (1) and the visual inspection of the watershed suggested that the principal zones of soil water concentration lie along the abundant fracture traces The experiment described here was located along one' of these zones on the north side of the stream.
