The basic principles underlying the planning of catchment-management experiments on small independent catchments in forest hydrological research are formulated. The selection of forestry and optional treatments is considered and the main types of experimental design are described and discussed. The requirements for statistical efficiency are stated and the application of the analysis of variance to such experiments is briefly set forth. The value of these experiments is stressed and it is recommended that their use should be further extended.
