A procedure for deriving sedimentgraphs in watersheds is proposed. The method is based on the instantaneous unit hydrograph theory developed for flood prediction and on the convolution integral theory. This procedure could be applied to any watershed where basic physical information is available (areas, slopes, length of channels, soil type). A qualitative comparison between results obtained and those published previously produced satisfactory results. Thus it is possible to conclude that the procedure is adequate. However, it is also necessary to compare it with real field measurements.
