A rainfall simulation study of soil erosion on rangeland in Swaziland
Rainfall simulation studies on rangeland in the Ntondozi area of Swaziland showed that soil loss decreased exponentially with increasing vegetation cover. Vegetation exerted an important hydrological control by increasing the infiltration capacity of the soil which, in turn, influenced the time to and duration of runoff. The expected effects of vegetation on soil protection and soil strength were not demonstrated. Instead, the amount of soil loss occurring in an individual storm appeared to depend on the supply of loose material on the surface which could be transported by the runoff.
