ABSTRACT Alexandrov, Y., Balaban, N., Bergman, N., Chocron, M., Laronne, J.B., Powell, D.M., Reid, I., Tagger, S., and Wener-Frank, I. 2008. Differentiated suspended sediment transport in headwater basins of the Besor catchment, northern Negev. Isr. J. Earth Sci. 57: 177–188. An extensive water and sediment monitoring network has been established during the past two decades in the Nahal Besor catchment of the northern Negev. Its primary purpose is to measure water and sediment fluxes at different hydrological scales and thus assist in understanding the complexity of sedimentary dynamics when these are assessed at the outlet of the trunk stream. Water and suspended sediment monitoring systems have been developed to provide discrete and continuous records, from which material fluxes have been calculated. The network involves 3 upland catchments—Nahal Eshtemoa, Nahal Sekher, and a sub-catchment of Nahal Bikhra—differing in size and/or rainfall regime.
