    Statistical description of slope-dependent soil transport and the diffusion-like coefficient by Furbish, David Jon, Haff, Peter K., Dietrich, William E., Heimsath, Arjun M.

    “…For hillslopes undergoing “diffusive” soil transport, it is often assumed that the soil flux is proportional to the local land‐surface gradient, where the…”
