英文摘要 | As a vital freshwater resource for one-sixth of the world's population, snowmelt provides great convenience for residents in terms of livelihood and production, agricultural irrigation, and hydroelectric power generation. However, snowmelt can also have an important impact on the formation of surface runoff and the process of soil erosion. In contrast to glacier melt, snowmelt erosion has received relatively little attention in the past. This paper reviewed the generation of snowmelt runoff, the characteristics of erosion and sediment yield during snowmelt, the snowmelt erosion mechanism, and the applications of snowmelt modeling. The published results of sediment yield driven from snowmelt runoff ranged from 1 to 300 t km-2 a-1, with the largest value of 1114 t km-2 a-1. Snowmelt erosion is extremely sensitive to warming climate. With global warming, there is a trend towards earlier snowmelt periods and a significant increase in runoff volume, as well as a significant increase in sediment yield from snowmelt in most of the study cases. Moreover, snowmelt erosion compared to rainfall erosion has more complex mechanistic processes which can be influenced by various factors such as snowfall, freeze-thaw, topography, etc. In particular, the occurrence of rain-on-snow events will lead to more severe soil erosion. In addition, current studies of sediment yield from snowmelt erosion account for a small percentage of snowmelt, and snowmelt erosion modeling is rarely applied in practical studies. In future research, the field monitoring of snowmelt erosion in the context of climate change needs to be further strengthened and the effects of multiple factors on snowmelt erosion need to be investigated. The inclusion of rain-on-snow and specific erosion types in the model will improve the applicability of models under climate change scenarios and in multiscale environments. This paper is intended to show the achievements as well as the limitations of snowmelt erosion research, while suggesting future research directions that need to be further explored and developed for better understanding and forecasting of snowmelt erosion. |
