A Physically—Based Geometry Model for Transport Distance Estimation of Rainfall-Eroded Soil Sediment

Estimations of rainfall-induced soil erosion are mostly derived from the weight of sediment measured in natural runoff. The transport distance of eroded soil is important for evaluating landscape evolution but is difficult to estimate, mainly because it cannot be linked directly to the eroded sedime...
