Abstract
Examines the nature of gully side wall erosion. Studies gully growth patterns and shows that side wall erosion is often dominant in the headwater portion of the gully system. Develops a model of side wall evolution which considers flume development. Active and semi active side walls may be dominated by rainsplash and slopewash processes. Erosion and sediment yield from a section of gully side wall are rough proportional to the surface area ratio. Examines the changes in side wall sediment yield with time. (C.J.U.)
