沿坡向下 meaning in Chinese

downhill

( 4 ) wavy distribution of soil water along hillslope resulted from the fluctuation of runoff , upslope runoff infiltration , lateral downslope flow , and the difference of infiltration rate and evapotranspiration
( 4 )土壤水分沿坡面呈“波浪形”分布是坡面径流的波动性、上方来水(径流)的沿程入渗、侧向沿坡向下流以及坡面各处入渗性能和蒸发蒸腾作用的差异等综合作用的结果。
( 3 ) when evaporation was stopped during the process of soil water redistribution , soil water would move downslope by gravity . when evaporation was in process , due to low initial water content , most infiltrated water from small intensity and amount of rainfall would be consumed by intensive evapotranspiration during rainy season , and lateral downslope unsaturated flow seldom took place . however , soil water would move downslope by gravitational and matric potential gradients after continuous rainfall
( 3 )在防止蒸发条件下，再分布过程中，土壤水分在重力的作用下有沿坡向下运移的趋势；在蒸发条件下，由于初始含水量一般较低，雨季量小且分散的降雨极易为强烈的蒸发蒸腾所消耗，侧向沿坡向下流难以发生，但在持续的降雨条件下，土壤水分在重力势和基质势梯度的作用下易沿坡向下运移。
