Study on Soil Moisture Infiltration and Simulation in Different Land Use of the Loess Area

Xiangdong Wang

Abstract

Soil moisture infiltration is studied in the Loess Area of Shanxi Province.In order to research the effect of different environmental factors(especially site,slope and vegetation) on soil moisture infiltration,infiltration observation is done in different topographical features position and land use.The results show the law of soil moisture infiltration with the time is that the initiation infiltration speed rate is the highest in the beginning,then it gradually fall.The infiltration speed rate of the shrub stands is the highest.The filtration speed rate on surface of road is the lowest.Based on the study,soil moisture infiltration can be simulated well by Philip soil moisture infiltration model.
