Research Progress of Slope Hydrological Connectivity Based on Soil Erosion
Quantitative indicators of slope hydrological connectivity mainly include runoff channel length,staining tracer method,connectivity index,relative surface connectivity function,topographic humidity index,directional permeability index,etc.According to the comprehensive analysis,the future research of hydrological connectivity should focus on the following aspects:(1)strengthen the comparative study of hydrological connectivity of slope in different regions;(2)Define the influence mechanism of different slope conditions on hydrological connectivity;(3)Establish the quantitative characterization method system of slope hydrological con-nectivity;(4)Analyze the relationship between soil erosion and slope hydrological connectivity.
