Abstract
The surface discharge from the gully catchments of the
Lublin Upland (Poland) usually is not very high and
amounts to about 15 mm·yr-1. It is mainly an episodic
discharge of snow/rainfall regime. Surface runoff and rill
erosion are caused by rains of the total >10 mm and
intensity >1 mm·min.-1, the main factor of gully erosion is
however snowmelt runoff. Most of the material set in
motion at that ...

The surface discharge from the gully catchments of the
Lublin Upland (Poland) usually is not very high and
amounts to about 15 mm·yr-1. It is mainly an episodic
discharge of snow/rainfall regime. Surface runoff and rill
erosion are caused by rains of the total >10 mm and
intensity >1 mm·min.-1, the main factor of gully erosion is
however snowmelt runoff. Most of the material set in
motion at that time remains at the bottom of the gully, and
can be carried away during heavy rainfalls. [--]
