“…In Mediterranean areas, erosion is particularly pronounced both in the semiarid regions (200-300 mm year −1 ), and in the sub-humid ones (900-1500 mm year −1 ) and the strong variability in annual precipitation with frequent events of extreme rainfalls may result in time-transgressive susceptibilities of regional erosion (after Boardman and Favis-Mortlock, 2001). Many studies were made on erosion simulations and on ecosystem responses to future climate changes (e.g., Newson and Lewin, 1991;Easterling et al, 2000;Yang et al, 2003;Nearing et al, 2005;Michael et al, 2005;Phillips et al, 2006;Quilbe et al, 2007), but few researches allowed to quantify the effects of past climate variability on the dynamics of geomorphological processes (Rumsby, 2001;Diodato, 2006;Foster et al, 2008), while they study episodic impacts of extreme rainfalls (e.g., Gomez et al, 1997;Hooke and Mant, 2000;Coppus and Imeson, 2002;Martínez-Casasnovas et al, 2002;Mul et al, 2008). Other researches are mainly based on plot covers and soil types and they cannot be scaled up to catchment scales (Dickinson and Collins, 2007).…”

“…Climate change can have many different effects on sediment transport in rivers and can cause instability in the fluvial system. However, it appears that human management activities have a greater influence and will ultimately determine the consequences of climatic change on fluvial systems (Newson & Lewin, 1991). Kobayashi et al (1990) evaluated diurnal fluctuations in streamflow and specific conductance during drought in winter and summer in a forested headwater basin.…”

“…Mais on trouve aussi un certain nombre de travaux réalisés dans des régions soumises à des conditions climatiques humides ou sub-humides, comme au Japon, en Inde ou en Chine (ELY ef al., 1996 ;GROSSMAN, 2001 ;JONES ef al., 2001 ;KALE ef al., 1997 ;THORSON, 1989 ;YANG et al, 2000). Il existe aussi des travaux réalisés en régions tempérées ou froides, comme en Europe et au Canada (ARNAUD-FASSETA, 2002 ;BENITO ef al., 1998 ;DUBAND, 2003 ;LMNGSTON étal., 2001 ;MACKLIN étal., 1992 ;NEWSON et LEWIN, 1991 ;PASSMORE et MACKLIN, 1994 ;POESEN et HOOKE, 1997 ;SAINT-LAURENT et LAVOIE, 2003 ;SAINT-LAURENT et SAUCET, 2003 ;SAINT-LAURENT ef al., 2001 ;WOLFE et EDWARDS, 2001). Pour la plupart de ces travaux, les chercheurs s'intéressent à établir des chronologies des événements d'inondation qui s'éten-dent sur plusieurs siècles ou plusieurs millénaires (période Holocène).…”

“…Ces travaux cherchent notamment à établir des liens entre les changements climatiques et les variations des régimes fluviaux. Certaines recherches s'intéressent par exemple aux impacts du réchauffement planétaire sur le phénomène des inondations dans les dernières décennies et à la modification des systèmes hydrologiques en regard des changements climatiques (GALE ef a/., 1990 ;KNOX, 1993 ;MORIN et SLIVITZSKY, 1992 ;NEWSON et LEWIN, 1991 ;PANAGOULlA-DlONYSlAL et DlMOU, 1997 ;RlND ef a/., 1992 ;WELLS, 1990). Toutefois, il ressort que les échelles chronologiques utilisées sont souvent trop courtes pour évaluer correctement les impacts des changements climatiques sur les phénomènes hydrologiques (ALILA et MTIRAOUI, 2002 ;BROWN ef a/., 2000 ;SMITH, 1992 ;STEDINGER et COHN, 1986).…”
