A simple field method to measure the hydrodynamic properties of soil surface crust
The hydraulic resistance of the surface crust was determined by a combination of two infiltrometric techniques: first, a surface measurement of steady-state infiltration rate is conducted by a mini-disk tension infiltrometer (MDI); then, the surface crust is removed, its thickness is measured, and…

A Novel Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) System for Water Content Estimation in Soils: Development and Application
Nowadays, there is a particular need to estimate soil water content accurately over space and time scales in various applications. For example, precision agriculture, as well as the fields of geology, ecology, and hydrology, necessitate rapid, onsite water content measurements. The time domain…

A simple infiltrometer automated with a user‐friendly pressure datalogger
Abstract We have constructed a new, simplified constant‐head infiltrometer automated with a self‐contained water level datalogger (HOBO U20L‐01) repurposed to measure changes in gas pressure inside an inverted bottle reservoir. Our field tests of six of these infiltrometers confirmed that recorded…

BEST-2K Method for Characterizing Dual-Permeability Unsaturated Soils with Ponded and Tension Infiltrometers
This study presents a new method (BEST-2K) that extends the existing BEST methods for use in characterizing the water retention and hydraulic conductivity functions of matrix and fast-flow regions in dual-permeability soils. BEST-2K requires input information from two water infiltration experiments…

Linking Rainfall Simulation and Single-Ring Measurements on a Swiss Alpine Hillslope: A Novel Framework for Surface Runoff Estimation
Surface runoff in alpine catchments is sensitive to rainfall intensity, resulting in substantial variations in runoff coefficients across rainfall scenarios. Although this dependency is well documented in the literature, it is often neglected in practical applications by assuming a fixed runoff…

Assessing Soil Physical Quality in a Layered Agricultural Soil: A Comprehensive Approach Using Infiltration Experiments and Time-Lapse Ground-Penetrating Radar Surveys
Time-lapse ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys, combined with automated infiltration experiments, provide a non-invasive approach for investigating the distribution of infiltrated water within the soil medium and creating three-dimensional images of the wetting bulb. This study developed and…

Impact of a synthetic zeolite mixed with soils of different pedological characteristics on soil physical quality indices
The addition of natural or synthetic zeolites induces changes in a soil’s chemical, physical, and biological characteristics. Zeolites possess intricate internal frameworks that allow them to modify soil structure and texture, thereby impacting soil hydrological properties. This potential offers…

Assessing Water Infiltration and Soil Water Repellency in Brazilian Atlantic Forest Soils
This study presents the results of the soil hydraulic characterization performed under three land covers, namely pasture, 9-year-old restored forest, and remnant forest, in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Two types of infiltration tests were performed, namely tension (Mini-Disk Infiltrometer, MDI)…

Review of conceptual and empirical approaches to characterize infiltration
Abstract Infiltration regulates the movement and storage of water at the soil–atmosphere interface and is, therefore, a key component of many related physical and biogeochemical processes. Numerous studies have examined infiltration over the past two centuries. These efforts have resulted in the…

A novel method to assess the infiltration and filtration functions of urban soils
Abstract Urban areas are increasingly under pressure due to rapid expansion and extreme rainfall events driven by climate change. Rather than relying solely on pipes to regulate stormwater, new management systems promote direct infiltration of water and pollutants into the soil. Soils fulfill…
