Water supply to the roots, infiltration, runoff, percolation and redistribution of water in a one-dimensional profile are

derived from hydraulic characteristics and moisture storage capacity of the soil.

The processes directly affecting the root zone soil moisture content can be defined as:

Infiltration: i.e. transport from the soil surface into the root zone;

Evaporation: i.e. the loss of soil moisture to the atmosphere;

Plant transpiration: i.e. loss of water from the interior root zone;

Percolation: i.e. downward transport of water from the root zone to the layer below the root zone;

Capillary rise: i.e. upward transport into the rooted zone.

Page 5: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

PRELIMINARY INFILTRATION

The infiltration rate depends on the available water and the infiltration capacity of the soil. If the actual surface storage is

less then or equal to 0.1 cm, the preliminary infiltration capacity is simply described as:

WhereINp : Preliminary infiltration rate[cm d-1]FI : Maximum fraction of rain not infiltrating during time step t[-]CI : Reduction factor applied to FI as a function of the precipitation intensity[-]P : Precipitation intensity[cm d-1]Ie : Effective irrigation[cm d-1]SSt : Surface storage at time step t [cm]Dt : Time step[d]

The maximum fraction of rain not infiltrating during time step t, FI can be either set to a fixed value or assumed to be

variable by multiplying FI with a precipitation dependent reduction factor CI which is maximum for high rainfall and will be reduced for low rainfall. The user should provide FI. The CI table is included in the model and is assumed to be

fixed.

                                 

Page 6: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

The calculated infiltration rate is preliminary, as the storage capacity of the soil is not yet taken into

account. If the actual surface storage is more than 0.1 cm, the

available water which can potentially infiltrate, is equal to the water amount on the surface (i.e. supplied via rainfall/irrigation and depleted via

evaporation):

WhereINp : Preliminary infiltration rate[cm d-1]P : Precipitation intensity[cm d-1Ie : Effective irrigation[cm d-1]Ew : Evaporation rate from a shaded water surface[cm d-1]SS : Surface storage at time step t [cm]Dt :Time step[d]

However, the infiltration rate is hampered by the soil conductivity and cannot exceed it. Soil conductivity is soil specific and should be given by the user.

INFILTRASI TERKOREKSI

Total water loss from the root zone can now be calculated as the sum of transpiration, evaporation and percolation.

The sum of total water loss and available pore space in the root zone define the maximum infiltration rate.

The preliminary infiltration rate cannot exceed this value. The maximum possible infiltration rate is given by:

Where:INmax :Maximum infiltration rate[cm d-1]qmax :Soil porosity (maximum soil moisture)[cm3 cm-3]Qt :Actual soil moisture content[cm3 cm-3]RD :Actual rooting depth[cm]Dt :Time step[d]Ta:Actual transpiration rate[cm d-1Es :Evaporation rate from a shaded soil surface [cm d-1]Perc :Percolation rate from root zone to lower zone[cm d-1]

Page 8: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

PERKOLASI

If the root zone soil moisture content is above field capacity, water percolates to the lower part of the potentially rootable

zone and the subsoil. A clear distinction is made between percolation from the actual rootzone to the so-called lower zone, and percolation from the lower zone to the subsoil.

The former is called Perc and the latter is called Loss. The percolation rate from the rooted zone can be calculated

as:

WherePerc : Percolation rate from the root zone to the lower zone[cm d-1]Wrz : Soil moisture amount in the root zone [cm]Wrz,fc Equilibrium soil moisture amount in the root zone [cm]Dt : Time step[d]Ta : Actual transpiration rate [cm d-1]Es : Evaporation rate from a shaded soil surface [cm d-1]

Page 9: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

The equilibrium soil moisture amount in the root zone can be calculated as the soil

moisture content at field capacity times the depth of the rooting zone:

WhereWrz,fc : Equilibrium soil moisture amount in the root zone[cm]Qfc : Soil moisture content at field capacity[cm3 cm-3]RD : Actual rooting depth[cm]

KAPASITAS LAPANG

Page 10: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

The percolation rate and infiltration rate are limited by the conductivity of the wet soil, which is soil specific and should be given by the user. Note that the percolation from the root zone to the lower zone can be limited by the uptake capacity of the lower

zone. The value calculated is preliminary and the uptake capacity

should first be checked. The percolation from the lower zone to the subsoil, the so-called

Loss, should take the water amount in the lower zone into account. If the water amount in the lower zone is less than the

equilibrium soil moisture amount, a part of the percolating water will be retained and the percolation rate will be reduced.

Water loss from the lower end of the maximum root zone can be calculated as:

Where1. Loss :Percolation rate from the lower zone to the subsoil[cm

d-1]2. Perc :Percolation rate from root zone to lower zone (see eq.

6.21)[cm d-1]3. Wlz :Soil moisture amount in the lower zone [cm]4. Wlz,fc :Equilibrium soil moisture amount in the lower zone

Water loss from the potentially rootable zone, is also limited by the maximum percolation rate of the subsoil,

which is soil specific and should be provided by the user. The equilibrium soil moisture amount in the lower zone can be calculated as the soil moisture content at field

capacity times the root zone depth:

Where1. Wrz,fc : Equilibrium soil moisture amount in the

lower zone[cm]2. Qfc :Soil moisture content at field capacity[cm3 cm-

For rice an additional limit of five percent of the saturated soil conductivity is set to account for puddling (a rather

arbitrary value, which may be easily changed in the program).

The saturated soil conductivity and is calculated with pF= -1.0 (i.e. a hydraulic head of 0.1 cm). The percolation rate from the lower zone to the sub soil is not to exceed this

value (van Diepen et al., 1988). The value calculated should be regarded as preliminary; the storage capacity of the receiving layer may become

limiting.

Page 12: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

The storage capacity of the lower zone, also called the uptake capacity, is the amount of air

plus the loss.It can de defined as:

WhereUP :Uptake capacity of lower zone[cm d-1]RDmax :Maximum rooting depth[cm]RD :Actual rooting depth[cm]Wlz :Soil moisture amount in lower zone[cm]Qmax :Soil porosity (maximum soil moisture)[cm3 cm-3]Dt :Time step[d]Loss :Percolation rate from the lower zone to the subsoil[cm d-1]

Percolation to the lower part of the potentially rootable zone can not exceed the uptake capacity of the lower zone. Therefore the percolation rate is set equal to the minimum of the calculated percolation rate and the uptake.

LIMPASAN PERMUKAAN : Surface runoff

Surface runoff is also taken into account by defining a maximum value for surface storage. If

the surface storage exceeds this value the exceeding water amount will run off. Surface storage at time step t can be calculated as:

WhereSSt : Surface storage at time step t[cm d-1]P : Precipitation intensity[cm d-1]Ie : Effective irrigation rate[cm d-1]Ew : Evaporation rate from a shaded water surface[cm d-1]IN : Infiltration rate (adjusted)[cm d-1]

GenRiver: Generic River model on river flow

Overview of the GenRiver model; the multiple subcatchments that make up the catchment as a whole can differ in basic soil properties, land cover fractions that affect interception, soil

structure (infiltration rate) and seasonal pattern of water use by the vegetation.

The subcatchment will also typically differ in ‘routing time' or in the time it takes the streams and river to reach the observation

point of main interest .

Page 20: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

Genriver Components

GenRiver model consists of several sectors, which are related to one another. Those sectors are:

Water Balance is a main sector that calculating the input, output, and storage changes of water in the systems. Some

components which are in this sector, rainfall, interception, infiltration, percolation, soil water, surface flow, soil

discharge, deep infiltration, ground water area and base flow.

…TREE PLANTING

http://savetherain.us/tree-planting/

Tree canopy coverage is vital for urban stormwater management as trees capture and store rainwater in their canopies and

root zones, eventually releasing this water over time into the atmosphere

through evapotranspiration.

Trees also help to slow down and temporarily store stormwater runoff due to their physical presence and the ability of tree roots to improve soil conditions to

promote infiltration.

Urban trees also provide a host of other community benefits including those

related to aesthetics, air quality, shading, property values, and energy.

Page 24: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

… How Much Stormwater Can Trees Manage?

http://www.americanforests.org/magazine/article/trees-the-new-sewers/

Sometimes it is hard to imagine how this one-by-one approach to tree planting could really make

a difference to the city’s overall stormwater problem.

How much water can trees really manage?

Scientists have studied how trees absorb rainwater, and the relationship between urban

trees and stormwater, but the number of studies is still relatively low.

Portland’s tree-planting program is well underway, but no one is sure how much stormwater the city’s trees can manage.

trees manage stormwater in three basic ways: Roots take up the water and distribute it to the tree; some water lands on leaves and branches and evaporates there; and roots create gaps in

the soil that allow water to seep through.

Page 25: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Right Tree in the Right Place

http://www.extendonondaga.org/natural-resources/urban-forestry/save-the-rain-street-tree-planting-program/

Trees will be sited as far as possible from existing infrastructure to reduce instances of

utility and sidewalk conflicts.

If there are no overhead utility wires, a tall growing tree will be chosen for the location. If wires are present, a lower growing tree will be

chosen.

The trees will be about 8-10 feet tall when planted.

Environmental conditions such as soil compaction, road salt exposure and drainage

will be assessed for each potential tree planting site.

An appropriate species will then be selected according to the conditions of each site.

Page 26: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Benefits of Trees

Trees are an important aspect of the Save the Rain program.

Trees naturally soak up storm water and use the precipitation to feed their root systems.

A tree canopy slows the rainwater with its leaves allowing the soil to become fully

saturated with water.

The tree is then able to absorb more rain water and reduce run-off entering the sewer

system.

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

1. Trees Produce Oxygen

Let's face it, we could not exist as we do if there were no trees.

A mature leafy tree produces as much oxygen in a season as 10 people inhale in

a year.

What many people don't realize is the forest also acts as a giant filter that

cleans the air we breath.

Page 30: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

2. Trees Clean the Soil

The term phytoremediation is a fancy word for the absorption of dangerous

chemicals and other pollutants that have entered the soil.

Trees can either store harmful pollutants or actually change the pollutant into less

harmful forms.

Trees filter sewage and farm chemicals, reduce the effects of animal wastes, clean roadside spills and clean water runoff into

streams.

Page 31: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

3. Trees Control Noise Pollution

Trees muffle urban noise almost as effectively as stone walls.

Trees, planted at strategic points in a neighborhood or around your house, can

abate major noises from freeways and airports.

Page 32: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

4. Trees Slow Storm Water Runoff

Flash flooding can be dramatically reduced by a forest or by planting trees.

One Colorado blue spruce, either planted or growing wild, can intercept more than 1000 gallons of water annually when fully

grown.

Underground water-holding aquifers are recharged with this slowing down of

water runoff.

Page 33: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

5. Trees Are Carbon Sinks

To produce its food, a tree absorbs and locks away carbon dioxide in the wood,

roots and leaves.

Carbon dioxide is a global warming suspect.

A forest is a carbon storage area or a "sink" that can lock up as much carbon

as it produces. This locking-up process "stores" carbon

as wood and not as an available "greenhouse" gas.

Page 34: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

6. Trees Clean the Air

Trees help cleanse the air by intercepting airborne particles, reducing heat, and absorbing such pollutants as carbon

monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide.

Trees remove this air pollution by lowering air temperature, through

respiration, and by retaining particulates.

Page 35: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

7. Trees Shade and Cool

Shade resulting in cooling is what a tree is best known for. Shade from trees reduces the need

for air conditioning in summer.

In winter, trees break the force of winter winds, lowering heating costs.

Studies have shown that parts of cities without cooling shade from trees can literally be "heat

islands" with temperatures as much as 12 degrees Fahrenheit higher than surrounding

areas.

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

8. Trees Act as Windbreaks

During windy and cold seasons, trees located on the windward side act as windbreaks.

A windbreak can lower home heating bills up to 30% and have a significant effect on reducing

snow drifts. A reduction in wind can also reduce the drying

effect on soil and vegetation behind the windbreak and help keep precious topsoil in

place.

…Reasons Living Trees Are Valuable

http://forestry.about.com/od/treephysiology/tp/tree_value.htm

9. Trees Fight Soil Erosion

Erosion control has always started with tree and grass planting projects.

Tree roots bind the soil and their leaves break the force of wind and rain on soil.

Trees fight soil erosion, conserve rainwater and reduce water runoff and

sediment deposit after storms.

10. Trees Increase Property Values

Real estate values increase when trees beautify a property or neighborhood.

Trees can increase the property value of your home by 15% or more.

…How Trees Can Retain Stormwater Runoff

Tree City USA. BULLETIN No. 55 Dr. James R. Fazio, Editor

Trees in our communities provide many services beyond the inherent beauty they

lend to streets and properties.

One of the most overlooked and underappreciated is their ability to reduce

the volume of water rushing through gutters and pipes following a storm.

This means less investment in expensive infrastructure and – importantly – cleaner water when the runoff reaches rivers and

lakes.

Page 40: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…How Trees Can Retain Stormwater Runoff

Tree City USA. BULLETIN No. 55 Dr. James R. Fazio, Editor

The leaves and bark of a tree retain a huge amount of water, allowing some of it to

evaporate and some to more slowly reach the ground.

Depending on size and species, a single tree may store 100 gallons or more, at least until it

reaches saturation after about one to two inches of rainfall.

When multiplied by the number of trees in a community, this interception and redistribution

can be significant.

It is estimated that the urban forest can reduce annual runoff by 2 – 7 percent. This reduction can be converted into dollar savings due to the use of smaller drainage and artificial retention

systems.

Page 41: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…How Trees Can Retain Stormwater Runoff

Tree City USA. BULLETIN No. 55 Dr. James R. Fazio, Editor

When trees are combined with other natural landscaping, studies have shown

that as much as 65 percent of storm runoff can be reduced in residential

developments.

In fact, sometimes even 100 percent of rainfall can be retained on site.

Page 42: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…How Trees Can Retain Stormwater Runoff

Tree City USA. BULLETIN No. 55 Dr. James R. Fazio, Editor

Through the collective action of leaves and the anchoring and absorbing effects

of roots, trees also contribute to soil stabilization, cleaner water and the

recharge of groundwater that serves as the drinking supply for over half the

nation’s population.

The role of trees in stormwater retention and its resulting benefits to public health and municipal budgets deserves greater

appreciation.

It is one more reason why the planting and care of trees in our communities is of

critical importance.

Page 43: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

… Important Ways a Tree Helps with Stormwater Management

Tree City USA. BULLETIN No. 55 Dr. James R. Fazio, Editor

Trees help reduce stormwater runoff in several ways. One is to intercept falling rain and hold a

portion of it on the leaves and bark. Part of this intercepted water will evaporate and

part will be gradually released into the soil below.

At the surface of the soil, fallen tree leaves help form a spongy layer that moderates soil

temperature, helps retain soil moisture, and harbors organisms that break down organic matter and recycle elements for use in plant

growth. This important layer also allows rain water to percolate into the soil rather than rushing off carrying with it oil, metal particles and other

pollutants. Below ground, roots hold the soil in place and

absorb water that will eventually be released into the atmosphere by transpiration.

Tree City USA. BULLETIN No. 55 Dr. James R. Fazio, Editor

Vegetative Swales

As impervious surfaces spread with the increase of paved roads, parking lots, driveways and even former lawn

areas, the use of swales is more important than ever. The potential of this facility was well demonstrated by the

Center for Urban Forest Research in a Davis, California, parking lot. Using a control area for comparison and after

50 storm events and 22 inches of rain, the researchers credited the swale with reducing surface runoff by 89

percent and reducing pollutants by 95 percent.

While some communities require swales in new developments, the vegetated aspect is sometimes

overlooked. Designing with plant materials appropriate to the climate and site is important, as is a plan for

occasional maintenance, but the effort is most worthwhile. Not only can trees and other vegetation provide the

benefits described on page 3, they add to the beauty of the area, help ‘calm’ traffic, and offer the welcome cooling

effect of shade in the summer. A swale with only rock or sod is depriving the neighborhood of a full return on its

investment.

Page 46: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

…How Trees Can Retain Stormwater Runoff

Tree City USA. BULLETIN No. 55 Dr. James R. Fazio, Editor

Stormwater Basins

A stormwater basin is similar to a swale but is generally not linear.

Basins are often used in housing developments, especially if the streets and lots do not lend

themselves to swales.

Designs of basins vary widely. Some are simply concrete boxes that look like fenced, un-peopled

swimming pools.

They are often eyesores and reduce the space to a single use that contributes little else than the

retention of water. On the other hand, stormwater basins can be built to serve as picnic grounds or free play

areas during dry weather. Others appear as natural areas, providing open

space, wildlife habitat and a touch of beauty.

Structural SoilOne of the most significant urban forestry developments

in recent decades has been the design and use of structural soil. Pioneered by Dr. Nina Bassuk at Cornell

University, structural soil can be used beneath sidewalks and parking lots to provide both the strength needed for paving or compaction and a livable environment for tree

roots.

Page 48: MENANAM POHON   UNTUK MEMANEN AIR HUJAN HIDROLOGI

Tree Pits

Even traditional tree pits can contribute to retaining stormwater runoff.

If engineered for water to drain into the pits (sloping pavement, curbs with inlets, etc.), these

are called ‘stormwater-capturing tree pits.’

Their usefulness is enhanced with greater soil volume and by connecting individual pits with

trenches.

Of course, as with structural soil, it is important for the subsoil to be able to receive percolating water or a drain system is necessary to prevent

drowning the root system.

Riparian Buffers

Trees along the shores of lakes and the banks of rivers and streams are more than decorations.

Not only do their canopies intercept some of the rain and reduce its impact, their roots anchor the soil and help take up leached chemicals before

they reach the body of water.

Shrubs in the riparian zone also help slow flood water. Where banks are washed away or heavily impacted, a range of bioengineering techniques

are available using natural materials for restoration.
