Abstract:The seabuckthorn plant flexible dam (The SPFD) is a new type of ecological engineering, which can efficaciously control soil erosion and capture sediment in the Pisha sandstone gully within Loess Plateau of China. The seabuckthorn plant can resist flow due mainly to slowing velocity, and thus reduce the flow scour stress and the sediment carrying capacity. It is therefore necessary to analyze the flow velocity distribution within the SPFD. The results showed that: i) the SPFD has a significant effect on the bo… Show more
