Abstract

Highlights: [•] Simple canopy generator reproduces observed canopy gap fraction. [•] Model predicts dripping locations, which can trigger localized soil erosion. [•] Model confirms splashing as considerable source of small throughfall droplets. [•] Predicted throughfall spatial distribution poses a challenge to correct sampling. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
