Runoff and soil loss were measured in closed-plots after a controlled fire from 3/May/2011 to 31/Dec/2013 in order to estimate their short-term differential response respect to control plots covered by natural vegetation. The main rainfall events were mainly registered from August to November, especially those with major rainfall intensities. Burnt and control plots showed similar temporal patterns: more runoff and sediments produced during the events occurred during the Autumn, but up-to three times higher the former than the latter. Those events washed off plots and sediment transport diminishes during winter and spring rain events, except after long rainy periods. Despite of vegetation cover has slightly recovered, after two years and half burnt plots still remain produced more runoff and sediments after the controlled-fire.
