| Popis: | Soil and water conservation are important measures in regulating runoff and sediment load on the Loess Plateau. Information on how land use and land cover changes, especially the implementation of the soil and water loss control project, can affect the sediment load dynamics and hydrological variables is important since large-scale eco-environmental governance programs are being implemented. In this study, an improved double mass curve and the decomposition method were used to assess the effects of different soil and water control measures on runoff and sediment load in the Lvergou, which is a small basin on the Loess Plateau in China, based on 60 years of data. We conclude that the total precipitation (P) was not statistically significantly different (p > 0.05), whereas heavy rain increased significantly (p |
