| contents | The paper presents an open source software for numerical integration of an extended Saint-Venant model used as a mathematical tool to simulate the water flow from laboratory up to large-scale spatial domains applying physically-based principles of fluid mechanics. Many in-situ observations have shown that vegetation plays a key role in controlling the hydrological flux at catchment scale. In case of heavy rains, the infiltration and interception processes cease quickly, the remaining rainfall gives rise to the Hortonian overland flow and the flash flood is thus initiated. In this context, we also address the following problem: how do the gradient of soil surface and the vegetation influence the water dynamics in the Hortonian flow? The mathematical model and ASTERIX were kept as simple as possible in order to be accessible to a wide range of stakeholders interested in understanding the complex processes behind the water flow on hillslopes covered by plants. |
