The kinetic energy of rain measured with an optical disdrometer: an application to splash erosion

The present paper describes the procedures used to measure and compute the kinetic energy and various other rainfall characteristics as well as the concurrent splash erosion rates in a recently terraced forest plantation in Soutelo, north-central Portugal, from May to September 2007. This involved t...
