Measured Surface Parameters
Each watershed was divided into three hillslopes
by the GeoWEPP program and both models were tested using these hillslopes.
The hillslopes are labeled based on their location relative to one
another (North, South, West and East).
The hillslope labels correspond to the
site diagrams.
The following table gives values of the measured surface
parameters from the first year after each fire.
The consecutive years of surface data were estimated based on recovery of the soil
and vegetation after disturbance based on the hydrologic/suface
condition (see thesis
Accuracy assessment of WEPP-based erosion models on three small, harvested and burned forest watersheds
for estimates and a more detailed description of the process).
