| Watershed Description: | 37 km^2 Tougou River, located in the north central part of Yatenga Province in the Northern Sahelian Region Burkina Faso (in West Africa). The study area features bare/degraded soils, natural vegetation and cultivated areas, a semi-arid climate with an annual runoff coefficient ~25%. |
