Description :
The goal of this paper is to present results of ongoing investigations on fluvial sediment transport and fluvial sediment yields during thermally and pluvially induced runoff events in the glacier-fed Erdalen catchment in Nordfjord, western Norway. Discussion of the data based on 3 years of continuous process monitoring and analysis (2005-2008) in the upper Erdalen valley.
