Description :
The aims of this study are 1) to examine erosion and sedimentation processes in the Paricutin cone and adjacent lava fields, in the first two decades after the eruption; 2) to identify revegetation processes and soil development; 3) to determine the changes in the drainage system and rates of integration after eruption, and 4) to estimate the recovery rate of the different volcanic landforms 50 years after the eruption.
