Abstract
The magnitude of difference between the predicted detachment rates and the measured interrill sediment delivery rates decreased with clay content. This suggests that in coarse-textured soils, most of the rain-detached sediments are redistributed within the interrill area. Small differences between detachment rates and sediment delivery rates in clayey soils indicate that the interrill erosion is detachment limited. A rainfdrop-induced interrill transportability parameter is derived by dividing the measured sediment delivery rates with the product of rainfall rate and unit effective kinetic energy. -from Authors
