Description :
This study analyses the temporal evolution on soil aggregates, induced by the effect of fire on 2 burned zones representative of a typical Mediterranean pinewood forest, near Valencia, Spain. These zones have different slope position in the same catchment. The effect of these differences on runoff production and soil loss by water erosion has also been studied since immediately after the wildfire (August 1993) until the end of 1996.
