Resumen
The arid zones of Argentina and India have been compared. In both regions run-off is often generated by the Hortonian infiltration surplus overland flow, and run-off response to precipitation input tends to be rapid. The sediment transport is governedby the transport capacity of run-off rather than by the availability of erodible material. The magnitude of hydrological processes is different in response to the different rainfall regimes.
