Effects of controlled fire on hydrology and erosion under simulated rainfall

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2014
Mediterranean forests are frequently subject to wildfires, inducing risks of high runoff and loss of nutrient-rich topsoil. The mechanisms influencing these post-fire effects are spatially variable due to differences in vegetation density, litter ...
