Resumen
The present research is
addressed to study the evolution of vegetation cover on
gully sidewalls and its influence on sediment production
due to gully erosion and on gully walls’ stabilization. A
sample gully system of the Penedès – Anoia (NE Spain) was
selected as study area (Fig. 1). In this region, gully erosion
is a problem which affects 23 - 32% of the land. It is part of
the Penedès Tertiary ...

sample gully system of the Penedès – Anoia (NE Spain) was
selected as study area (Fig. 1). In this region, gully erosion
is a problem which affects 23 - 32% of the land. It is part of
the Penedès Tertiary Depression, where calcilutites (marls)
and, occasionally, sandstones and conglomerates outcrop. [--]
