Abstract

The response of infiltration rate (fc) to grazing systems is modeled, based on infiltration-grazing information available from past studies. As inputs the model uses a grazing system schedule, initial infiltration rate, and a characteristic recovery time. The output is a sequence of infiltration rates, from which hydrologic impact inferences may be made. Background, development, usage, cautions, and future research needs are given. A computer program of the model is supplied.
