The AA. seek to constrain the probability distribution of splash transport distances on natural hillslopes as a function of hillslope gradient and total precipitation depth. Field experiments were conducted under natural precipitation events
to observe splash travel on varying slope gradients of the Miyagase Dam Basin, Kanagawa Prefecture, eastern Japan. Measured splash distances were calibrated to the fully two-dimensional (2D) model of splash transport of Furbish et al. that is based
on the assumption that radial splash distances are exponentially distributed. The AA. also compared measured data with several one-dimensional (1D) probability distributions to assess if splash transport distances could be better explained by a heavy-tailed

Sand-filled splash cups were used to study the erosivity of rainfall and throughfall in the humid subtropics of southeast China. The results showed that the splash cup measurements yielded precise and reproducible results both under open field
conditions and under forest vegetation. The splash cups were exposed to forest stands of different age and to selected species (Schima superba, Castanopsis eyrei) in the Gutianshan National Nature Reserve (GNNR). The results obtained under forest vegetation

This paper intends to describe how human pressure on Italian Alpine basins has been quite relevant for several centuries, in terms of land-use variations, in-channel structures, timber transport (splash damming) and riparian vegetation management
