plopping
Landing with splash
Plopping is the act of dropping or setting something down with a soft, heavy sound—the noise of impact without much bounce.
You might hear the plopping of raindrops on a roof or frogs plopping into a pond.
People plop themselves onto couches: She came home exhausted, plopping onto the sofa.
