How poplar trees influence water flow on slopes - Research Brief 19
Water flow on pastoral slopes following rainfall transfers sediment and contributes to slope erosion. Pasture cover reduces flow rate allowing more time for water absorption. Trees also influence water flow in ways that complement and enhance the effect of pasture.

Pollarding wide-spaced poplar trees on pastoral hillslopes alters root development - Research Brief 15

Willows at work in the catchment - Research Brief 11
Natural water catchments extend from mountains to sea, collecting water on the way. The erosive power of flowing water increases during periods of high water runoff, e.g. rainstorms. The heavier the rainfall the greater the water volumes and velocity the greater the erosive forces.
