“…Harvey, 2002Harvey, , 2012Shook et al, 2021); alpine environments, which often involve debris flow activity (Berger et al, 2011;Cavalli et al, 2013;Croke et al, 2013;Heckman and Schwanghart, 2013;Turley et al, 2021); forested catchments and the role of roads and culverts (Galia et al, 2017); channel and floodplain relationships (Hooke, 2003;Sandercock and Hooke, 2011) and connectivity in semi-arid environments (Lesschen et al, 2009;Medeiros et al, 2010). Temperate lowland arable catchments have been somewhat neglected, though with some notable exceptions: Alder et al, 2015;Couturier et al, 2013;Gascuel-Odoux et al, 2009;Delmas et al, 2012;Sherriff et al, 2019;Souchere et al, 1998. In such catchments, each LE encountered by field-to-river flow and transported sediment may be located within a spectrum which ranges from the wholly natural in origin (e.g. the planform convergence of coarse-scale topography) to the wholly anthropogenic (e.g.…”
