The group is interested on the hydromorphological effects of land-use and climate changes at different spatial and temporal scales. Such changes represent a disturbation of both the plant cover and the hydrological characteristics of soils, resulting in changes on runoff and sediment yield. The main topics studied are:
- Assessment of sediment sources
- Sediment balances at a catchment scale
- Past and present fluctuations of sediment yield
- Spatial organization of land-use changes
- Assessment and forecasting of geomorphic hazards.
- Paleoclimatic implications on landscape evolution
