Effects of pore size and pore connectivity on trapped gas saturation
Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2023 Trapped or residual air (or gas) is known to affect the multiphase hydraulic properties of both soils and rocks. Trapped air is known to impact many vadose zone hydrologic applications such as infiltration and flow in the capillary fringe, but is also a ...
