The AA. describe a dataset that offers possibilities for improved evaluation and parameterisation of spatially distributed soil erosion models. The dataset combines rainfall, runoff and sediment discharge data collected at the outlet and field
surveys within the catchments that describe soil surface charcteristics and soil erosion features. The paper dicusses and illustrates the use of the dataset to narrow uncertainties associated with model predictions.
