A review of preferential flow and transport through root channels

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Preferential flow can contribute up to 80%–90% of the flow and transport in the vadose zone. The root channels are the most prevalent form of preferential pathways. They create an evolving network of preferential pathways and are biogeochemical hotspots due to preferential transport of nutrients and other organics, colonization of bacteria ...
