Define soil detachment - ANSWERthe dislodgment of soil particles from the soil
mass through erosive forces

Define sediment transport - ANSWERthe movement of sediment particles (by water
or wind) once they have been detached

Define erosion - ANSWERthe weathering down of parent material and the
detachment by the action of wind, water, ice and gravity

,What is the erosion rate of soil for a site by water dependent on? - ANSWERon-site
characteristics, soil physical and chemical variables, and land management practices

what is sediment deposition (sedimentation)? - ANSWERthe process by which soil
particles that have been suspended within the water or air column settle back to the
ground surface

what equation is used to estimate the annual average erosion rate for a site? -
ANSWERRUSLE

Brain Break! (answer a question completely unrelated to stormwater)

What is the largest desert in the world? - ANSWERAntarctica Desert (don't believe
me? google it!)

what can sedimentation be a result of? - ANSWERreduced flow rates/flow velocities,
higher frictional forces, increased sediment load within runoff

site characteristics that directly impact the likelihood for soils to erode: -
ANSWERsoil type, vegetative cover, topography, climate

define hydrology - ANSWERthe study of water, including its occurrence, circulation,
distribution, chemical and physical properties, and the reaction of those properties to
the environment

parameters that characterize the hydrology of a site include; - ANSWERprecipitation,
evaporation, infiltration, runoff

the hydrologic cycle describes the movement of water... - ANSWERabove the
surface, on the surface, and below the surface

A land area that channels rainfall and snowmelt to creeks, streams, and rivers, and
eventually to outflow points such as reservoirs, bays, and the ocean -
ANSWERwatershed

define slope - ANSWERslope/gradients is defined as a number, typically a %, that
describes the direction and steepness of a surface

typical method of slope calculation - ANSWERrise over run ( slope% = rise/run )
*to convert the decimal to a whole number, multiply the slope % by one hundred

other ways of expressing slope include... - ANSWERslope degrees & slope ratios

slope ratios - ANSWER

_________ ___________ look at the angle of the slope using a protractor with 90
degrees being completely vertical and 0 degrees being completely horizontal. A 45
degree slope is one (1) horizontal unit to (1) vertical unit. - ANSWERslope degrees

, __________ __________ provides the slope in horizontal units to vertical units. For
instance, a three (3) ft horiz. run with a one (1) ft vert. change would be expressed
as a 3:1 slope. - ANSWERslope ratios
