Components of Runoff Plot | Tools | Soil Science

The following points highlight the three main components of runoff plot. The components are: 1. Collector 2. Divisor 3. Coshocton Wheel Sampler. Boundaries are required for demarcating the area of runoff plot; and also for making a clear-cut jurisdiction for catching the rainfall and collecting rainfall based observations from the given area within plot boundary. The plot boundary can be [...]
