The Malalcahuello Catchment is sometimes also called the catchment of the Tres Arroyos.

Location

On the southern slope of the volcano Lonquimay, IXth Region, Southern Chile

Catchment size

ca. 6 km²

Climate

humid-temperate with altitudinal effects, snow in higher altitudes during winter

Geology

volcanic ashes, andesite

Topography

steep slopes, elevations range from 1120 m to 1856 m above sea level

Vegetation/Land use

old growth forest, no anthropogenic intervention

Context of investigation

several studies have been carried out in this catchment. Research topics include:

  • Runoff generation processes
  • Sediment transport
  • Debris flow
  • Large woody debris
  • Interception

Measurements/Equipment
