Abstract
An automatically-recording tensiometer system was designed and installed to record the spatial variation of soil moisture in a hillslope spur and hollow. Results are presented which demonstrate the significant control of topography on soil moisture conditions and the resulting stream-flow response. From the storm event examined and the month-long recession which followed, the hillslope hollow is shown to be significant in both generating a through flow peak in stream discharge and in maintaining the subsequent base flow.
