    Effect of topography on retreat rate of different gully headcuts in Bardenas Reales area (Navarre, Spain)

    In Northeast Spain, gullying is a widespread phenomenon. This type of erosion is especially intense in Bardenas Reales (Navarre) where at least two major typical kinds of gully headcut are present. A first group developed in soil material (named, conventional gully headcut), and second group of gully headcut with a sandstone layer as a top horizon (named, sandstone gully headcut). In addition, within the former group, we can distinguish a subgroup of gully headcuts developed in soils particularly prone to piping and tunnelling due to the dispersive condition of the materials (named piping associated gully headcut). In this situation, a question arises: to what extent simple topographic parameters account for the retreat rate of the different kind of gully headcuts observed in the region of Bardenas Reales? The aim of this study was to investigate and gain insight in this issue.
