Description :
In this study, the results of a series of experiments are reported, summarizing the soil loss and runoff response from a 0.6x3.75 m area to different rainstorm regimes, slope steepnesses, subsurface soil water pressures, and surface roughnesses under controlled laboratory conditions using a flume and rainfall simulator as water applicators, and a laser microreliefmeter and tensiometric system as soil response measuring devices. The soil chosen was a highly erodible Grenada loess. Discussion of the results.
