Abstract
Overland flow resulting from an excess of rain over infiltration is an essential component of many models of runoff and erosion from fields or catchments. The spatially variable infiltration (SVI) model and a set of associated equations relating depth of runoff and maximum rate of 'effective' runoff (as used in the GUEST erosion model) to storm depth, depth-averaged intensity of rainfall, average maximum infiltration capacity and an additional amount of initial infiltration were validated and tested on back-sloping bench terraces in volcanic upland West Java, Indonesia. Data used were runoff rate and depth from 31 small (1.0-8.2 m
