The objectives were to determine regionally and nationally whether thre are gross differences between water yields, low flows, suspended sediment yields and water quality of the basins established in different landuses. The study design was observational. Suites of matching basins, differing only in terms of their landuse, were set up in regions of distinctive physiography, geology and climate. 14 of these basins, established either in pasture or exotic forest, had adequate data on suspended sediment. Preliminary results from the analysis of this suspended sediment data were preorted by Hicks (1988). This paper presents some final results.

The Landuse Basin Study was initiated by the Water and Soil Directorate of the Ministry of Works and Development in 1978 with the aim of providing information on the hydrolgical impacts of given landuses. The objectives were to determine regionally and nationally whether thre are gross differences between water yields, low flows, suspended sediment yields and water quality of the basins established in different landuses. The study design was observational. Suites of matching basins, differing only in terms of their landuse, were set up in regions of distinctive physiography, geology and climate. 14 of these basins, established either in pasture or exotic forest, had adequate data on suspended sediment. Preliminary results from the analysis of this suspended sediment data were preorted by Hicks (1988). This paper presents some final results.
