Abstract:Forest vegetation and soils in headwaters can control runoff and surface erosion. However, it remains unclear how vegetation affects nutrient exports from cool-temperate forest headwaters during intense rain events that transport sediment-associated nutrients, such as phosphorus (P). To clarify this, we targeted an upstream landslide area and analyzed P contents in surface soils and total P (TP) in stream water of the undisturbed (UF) and landslide-bearing forest (LB) catchments. The soil P content was higher … Show more
