Fig. 1. Simulated rainfall intensity patterns applied and runoff rates from the Tifton loamy sand for each rainfall intensity pattern (Ic, constant rainfall intensity; Iv, variable rainfall intensity) and tillage (CT, conventional tillage; ST, strip tillage) treatments studied. Bars = SE. Note differences in scale between simulated rainfall and runoff.
