In order to explore the effect of slope gradient on erosion and water-sediment relationship on the loess slope under a rainfall event, simulated rainfall experiments were carried out in the laboratory, and the water-sediment relationship on the loess slope was studied with energy theory. The results show that:(1)under the condition of a rainfall event, the trend of sediment yield intensity on slope over runoff yield time is more complex than that of runoff yield intensity, and there is the asynchrony between the two trends over the runoff yield time;(2)the relationship between total runoff and sediment yield can be described by quadratic, and there is a critical value of quantitative change between the gradients ranging from 20° to 25°;(3)there is a positive correlation between runoff intensity and sediment yield intensity, and the coefficient of equation decreases with the increase of slope gradient;(4)there is a positive correlation between cumulative runoff and sediment yield, and the absolute value of correlation coefficient is proportional to slope gradient;(5)the average runoff energy increases or decreases with the change of slope gradient; in the process of slope erosion, the relationship between average runoff energy and average sediment yield intensity is positively correlated, and can be described by linear equation; the average runoff energy can reasonably predict the sediment transport capacity of Loess slope. These results can provide the theoretical basis for understanding the mechanism of soil erosion in Loess area.
