The piping process have an important development in old
agricultural terraced fields. The abandonment of these
fields, together with the lithologies, hydraulic and climatic
characteristics favour the quick development of pipes. Its
subsequent evolution is the development of a landscape
with gullies, with a deteriorated and non-recoverable space
for agricultural use, in addition to constituting an important
sediment source with elevated rates of erosion. [--]
