Sensitivity of geologic formations to erosion has important role in sediment yield of catchments. Field investigation indicates that a high percentage of sediment can originate from a small part of the catchment.This research has been carried out in two parts. 1- Investigations in Chandabe basin of Varamin as follows: River longitudinal profile , drainage patterns, k coefficient(in USLE model), of formations , area percentage or marl, area covered by different formations. 2- Investigation in flood spreading area including suspended sediment and permeability of the land.The sensitivity of formations to erosion was determined based on the above investigations as follows: Upper Red Formation is the most susceptible to erosion .Lower Red is highly susceptible to erosion . Hezar Dareh Formation , Tehran alluvium and most parts of Karaj Formation have medium susceptibility and Karaj Formation in highlands is resistant formation to erosion.Keywords: Sensitivity to erosion, erodibility, Chandab Basin, Varamin, Iran
