Abstract :
Slope length is one of the important factors for slope-runoff and slope sediment yield. In order to research the role of slope length on slope erosion in the test area, the rainfall runoff observation experiments of different slope length were conducted. The experimental results indicated that runoff volume and erosion amount showed a gradually increasing trend with the increase of slope length.
