Impacts of land use change on watershed streamflow and sediment yield: An assessment using hydrologic modelling and partial least squares regression

Economic Valuation for Water Supply From Merapi Volcano National Park (Case Study: Kali Kuning Sub Watershed)

“…Land use change from natural forest to other land uses can decrease vegetation coverage that leads to reducing evapotranspiration (Yan et al, 2013). It also declines in infiltration (Gumidonga et al, 2014) due to the reduction in surface roughness and litter (Baker and Miller, 2013).…”

“…It also declines in infiltration (Gumidonga et al, 2014) due to the reduction in surface roughness and litter (Baker and Miller, 2013). Furthermore, the deforestation scheme increases streamflow (Baker and Miller, 2013;Yan et al, 2013) because most of the precipitation becomes surface runoff rather than infiltration (Baker and Miller, 2013).…”

Modelling Groundwater Recharge in a Semi-arid River Basin: A Retrospective Assessment

“…To assess the impacts of LULCCs on groundwater recharge of the Olifants Basin, the "fix-changing" method was used [6], [30], [43] - [45]. With this method, the calibrated model was run for each of the land use maps (2000, 2007 and 2013) whiles keeping constant the DEM, climatological parameters and soil data.…”

Integrated studies of physical geography in China: Review and prospects

“…LUCC results in variations of elements in the land surface system, and its environmental impacts have been studied mainly from six aspects: (1) carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems Feng et al, 2013;Zhang et al, 2015), (2) climate and atmospheric components (Jiang et al, 2009;Deng et al, 2014;Peng et al, 2014;Zhang et al, 2016), (3) soil properties and land degradation (Fu et al, 1999;Zhang et al, 2007a;Jiang et al, 2015), (4) hydrological processes, water resources and quality Feng et al, 2012;Wu et al, 2012a;Yan et al, 2013), (5) biodiversity and ecosystem service value (Zhang et al, 2008b;Fu et al, 2015;Zhan, 2015;Wang et al, 2015a) and (6) complex environmental impacts at the regional level (Shi et al, 1999a;Cui et al, 2012;Liu et al, 2014b).…”
