The Baillmarsane basin: the MONTCLIMA pilot case on sediment dynamics and erosion following a major fire
Alt

The Baillmarsane catchment area is located in the foothills of the Canigou mountain in the Pyrénées- Orientales. It is a very dynamic catchment in terms of torrentiality, erosion and land movements. In January 2020, the Baillmarsane was impacted by storm Gloria, which was very intense in terms of rainfall and snowfall, unusual for the winter season. In some places, the equivalent of 4 to 5 months of rain fell in 72 hours, which generated exceptional flooding on the scale of the department.
