| Abstract/Description: | RESEARCH DATA ON RUNOFF AS INFLUENCED BY TREE HARVESTING AND MAN- MADE PLANTATIONS ARE PRESENTED. TWO SMALL FOREST ( BRUSH) WATERSHEDS W, F (1.45 ha) AND W2F(0.78 ha) WERE CALIBRATED FOR 8 YEARS ( 1961-68) . DURING CALIBRATION PERIOD W1F GAVE 18% MORE RUNOFF AND 63 % HIGHER PEAK RATE OF RUNOFF AS COMPARED TO W2F. IN THE YEAR 1969, W1F WAS CLEAR FELLED AND REFORESTED WITH EUCALYPTUS SPP. THE POST- CALIBRATION RELATIONSHIP INDICATES THAT W1F ( TREATED) AFTER AFFORESTATION GAVE 10% LESS RUNOFF AND PEAK RATES OF RUNOFF AS COMPARED TO W2F ( UNTREATED) THE TOTAL REDUCTION OF 28% IN RUNOFF AND 73% IN PEAK RATE IS DUE TO AFFORESTATION RESULTING IN FULLY STOCKED PLANTATION AND A DENSE UNDERGROWTH. THE STUDY HAS QUANTITATIVELY INDICATED THE EFFECTIVENESS OF AFFORESTATION IN REDUCING RUNOFF AND ITS PEAK RATE BY 28% AND 75% RESPECTIVELY. |
