Abstract
The resultant cartographic model presents five types of post wildfire soil erosion susceptibility. Those areas with the highest risk correspond to quartzite lithology regions, with long, steep hillsides covered with heaths. Those with the lowest risk correspond to limestone bedrock areas with gentle slopes and herbaceous vegetation. The accuracy of the model is determined by the scale of the original thematic cartography: 1:25000, and the cell size of the Digital Terrain Model is 50Â ÃÂ 50 m.
