Flood-based analysis of high-magnitude sediment transport using a non-parametric method.

The article offers information on the use of non-parametric method for flood-based analysis of high-magnitude sediment transport. It examines the result of monitoring of a sedigraph from intermittent measurements and the derived sediment yields in the Isábena catchment in Spain. It is mentioned that upland erosion and reservoir siltation endangers the catchment outlet and two adjacent subcatchments of the area. The presence of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) which demonstrate the role of badlands as source of sediments are recorded.
