in vegetation cover resulted in significant increases in runoff and soil loss was investigated.
This study was carried out to provide data on the spatial variability of runoff and sediment production on lithologically uniform hillsllopes which differ in aspect, slope and vegetation. Such data can be used to adjust forestry practices for more
