Abstract

The extreme climatic event in southern Brazil underscores the hydro-sedimentological vulnerability of agricultural headwater catchments within the Jacuí River Basin. This article describes the hydrological and erosive processes that took place between April 29 and 30, 2024, in the Guarda Mor River experimental catchment (18.5 km2), located at the interface between the Basaltic Plateau and the Central Depression regions of Rio Grande do Sul. The hydrological event was monitored based on rainfall, streamflow, and suspended sediment concentration to characterize [...]
