Methods of Soil Water Collection at Different Matric Suctions
Japanese Journal of Limnology (Rikusuigaku Zasshi), 1978 To investigate the transport mechanism of solutes in soil water in the unsaturated zone, collection of soil water samples having different matric potential is necessary. Three methods originally developed for the purpose of measuring matric suction, i. e., the centrifuging, the pressure membrane, and the vapor pressure depression methods, were used to ...

Governing failure mode of unsaturated soil slopes under rainwater infiltration
E3S Web of Conferences, 2016 Due to rainwater infiltration and loss of matric suction above the wetting font, both translational and rotational slips may occur in an unsaturated soil slope. It is useful to know which failure mode is more critical.
