Description :
In the mediterranean forest area of Israel, fires increase runoff and sediment yield rates relative to undisturbed forested land. This study aims to : 1) determine the rates of water runoff and sediment yield from burnt slope sites, related to unburnt areas; 2) analyze the factors affecting the geomorphic processes.
