Sentence examples for rainstorm runoff from inspiring English sources

The present study deals with the calculation of drain spacings for optimal rainstorm runoff control.

During the rainstorm, runoff and soil loss rates exhibited unimodal distributions, and they were related by a positive linear function, both before and after the maximum soil loss rate, that had a high determination coefficient (R2 > 0.8, p < 0.05) on loess slopes with sand layer thicknesses greater than 5 cm.

During the monsoonlike desert rainstorms, runoff from the nearby Squaw Peak Mountain range can fill the normally bone-dry wash to a height of two feet.

During rainstorms, runoff from land flows back into aquatic habitat, carrying some of the microbeads with it.

The rainstorm-induced runoff from the watersheds exerts significant impacts on the marine recreational water quality of the beaches adjacent to lagoons during the first 24 48 h after a rain event.

During the rainstorms, some runoff rates on the loess slopes with thicker sand layers were higher than the rainfall intensity due to rainwater combining with water emerging from the saturated sand, which could never occur on the uncovered loess slope.

Downcutting continues to be especially rapid after heavy rainstorms and winter runoff when the water contains large amounts of suspended and abrasive sand grains.

The time required for this wetting process can exceed the duration of a convective rainstorm, in which case, runoff is dominated by infiltration-excess runoff and may be extended further as a result of the rainsplash occurring during the storm itself.

The rainfall totals are somewhat deceptive because a heavy rainstorm will produce more runoff -- and more beach closings -- than days of drizzle.

Major reported sources of cypermethrin in surface water include agricultural and urban runoff from rainstorms, spray drift, urban landscape irrigation and release of agricultural tailwaters (Wang et al. 2009).

The idea comes from hydrology and originally concerned the cadence of the build-up of runoff from rainstorms throughout a watershed as the water approached a dam on a large river (Hurst, Black, & Simaika, 1965).
