Wildfire effects on water quality in forest catchments: A review with implications for water supply

TL;DR: The first year post-fire suspended sediment exports varied from 0.017 to 50% of the total suspended solids in streams for the first year after fire, with an estimated increase of 1-1459 times unburned exports as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in sediment loads and discharge from small mountain catchments following wildfire in south eastern Australia

TL;DR: In this paper, a severe wildfire burnt over 1 million ha of forested land in southeastern Australia in early 2003, including two 136 and 244-ha hydrologic research catchments in the East Kiewa valley that had been decommissioned following a 10-year study, and an adjacent larger (10,050-ha) gauged catchment, the West kiewa River were re-instrumented to measure discharge and suspended sediment fluxes at 15min timesteps.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence of debris flow occurrence after wildfire in upland catchments of south-east Australia

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic documentation of high-magnitude erosion events after wildfire in south-east Australia, focusing on small (small) flash floods, mud torrents, and landlides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantification of hillslope runoff and erosion processes before and after wildfire in a wet Eucalyptus forest

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental program was initiated following an intense wildfire in 2003 in NE Victoria Australia, to quantify an expected large increase in hillslope erosion by rill and interrill processes from a steep, wet, Eucalyptus forest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of an unsealed forest road stream crossing: water quality and sediment sources

TL;DR: Turbidity monitoring and rainfall and runoff simulation experiments were conducted at a newly constructed unsealed road stream crossing to determine the quantity and sources of sediment entering the stream as mentioned in this paper, and continuous measurements of turbidity and estimation of total suspended solids (TSS) concentration upstream and downstream of the stream culvert were taken over a 5 month period.
