Description :
This paper focuses on hillslope runoff and sediment transport within 2 catchments in southeast Spain. 5 monitoring sites were established on hillslope concavities throughout the 2 catchments. The techniques used were mini-crest stage recorders, spray-painted lines, sediment traps and tipping bucket rain gauges. Sediment transport and depth of runoff varied dramatically with lithology; marl sites produced most runoff and sediment transport.
