The Pisha Sandstone area in China is an erosion zone affected by multiple forces, with water erosion being the main erosion force as well as the transport carrier of erosion materials. In order to better understand the processes pertaining to regional water erosion in a region of intense erosion made of Pisha sandstone and frequently affected by floods, an analysis of the characteristics of the runoff and sediment yield in the Erlaohugou watershed was conducted during flood events in this study. In August 2018, we carried out sampling of erosion materials and two sedimentary cycles in the region. The precipitation, runoff and sediment data corresponding to sedimentary cycles were analyzed. Hereafter, the flood which the flood peak the 20180716 was chosen as the reference as NO.1, and the flood which the flood peak 20180719 was chosen as NO.2. The initial soil water content and the pattern of rainfalls are the two main factors that determine the starting time and the initial loss of the runoff. The runoff and sediment transport of NO.1 are 2.7 times and 3.4 times of the value corresponding to NO.2, respectively. The types of dominant sediment in the sedimentary cycles are medium sand, fine sand and silt, accounting for 70%. The siltation in the basin changed depending on changes of the flood conditions. Compared with the sedimentary cycle of NO.1, the particle size of the sedimentary cycle of flood NO.2 is coarsened. The proportion of clay, silt and extremely fine sand decreased, while the content of fine sand, medium sand and coarse sand increased. This study also considered the use of the Weibull distribution to establish theoretical distribution curve of the particle size distribution of the erosion materials(surface soil and bare Pisha Sandstone)in the Erlaohugou watershed. On the basis of this, the proportion of erosion materials in the sedimentary cycles is obtained by differential evolution according to the least square criterion, and it is found that Pisha Sandstones are the main erosion materials in the sedimentary cycles.
