Applicability of the landscape evolution model in the absence of rills

David Andrew Barry, Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Perona, Seifeddine Jomaa, Mohsen Cheraghi, Andrea Cimatoribus

Despite numerous applications of physically-based models for incised landscapes, their applicability for overland flow on unchanneled surfaces is not known. This work challenges a widely used landscape evolution model for the case of non-uniform rainfall a ...

Hyporheic exchange is affected by bedform geometry, which induces complex flow paths within the bedform. Additional factors that influence flow and solute transport in the hyporheic zone are layered profile sediments and density-driven flow. This study exp ...

Environmental transport processes are highly coupled with the shape of landscapes. Modern catchment analysis with high-resolution data and huge computational powers demand more detailed within-cell metrics for surface evolution modeling. This dissertation ...

Catchment drainage network scaling laws found experimentally in overland flow morphologies

David Andrew Barry, Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Perona, Mohsen Cheraghi

The scaling relation between the drainage area and stream length (Hack’s law), along with exceedance probabilities of drainage area, discharge and upstream flow network length are well known for channelized fluvial regions. We report here on a laboratory e ...

Transport time scales in soil erosion modelling

David Andrew Barry, Seifeddine Jomaa, Mohsen Cheraghi

Unlike sediment transport in rivers, erosion of agricultural soil must overcome its cohesive strength to move soil particles into suspension. Soil particle size variability also leads to fall velocities covering many orders of magnitude, and hence to diffe ...

Hysteretic sediment fluxes in rainfall-driven soil erosion

David Andrew Barry, Seifeddine Jomaa, Mohsen Cheraghi

Hysteresis patterns of different sediment particle sizes were studied via a detailed laboratory study and modelling. Seven continuous rainfall events with stepwise- varying rainfall intensities (15, 30, 45, 60, 45, 30 and 15 mm,h\textsuperscript{-1}, each ...

The ability of a large-scale Landscape Evolution Model (LEM) to simulate the soil surface morphological evolution as observed in a laboratory flume (1-m × 2-m surface area) was investigated. The soil surface was initially smooth, and was subjected to heter ...

Landscape Evolution Model at the Flume Scale

David Andrew Barry, Andrea Rinaldo, Mohsen Cheraghi

Landscape evolution models (LEMs) refer to a class of models that simulate key features of network structures at the catchment scale, along with runoff and sediment deposition. Such models can reproduce landscape features as captured by different (statisti ...

Hysteretic sediment fluxes in rainfall-driven soil erosion: Particle size effects

David Andrew Barry, Seifeddine Jomaa, Mohsen Cheraghi

A detailed laboratory study was conducted to examine the effects of particle size on hysteretic sediment transport under time-varying rainfall. A rainfall pattern composed of seven sequential stepwise varying rainfall intensities (30, 37.5, 45, 60, 45, 37. ...

Soil surface morphology evolution under spatially non-uniform rainfall

David Andrew Barry, Andrea Rinaldo, Mohsen Cheraghi

We evaluated the applicability of a large-scale river network evolution model used to simulate morphological changes of a laboratory-scale landscape on which there were no visible rills. Previously, such models were used only at the landscape scale, or in ...
