Soil crusting in Western Samoa. Part II - Experimental investigation of factors influencing crust formation [PDF]
The Alafua Penetrometer was used to measure relative differences in soil crust strength. Crust strength and thickness were shown to increase with increases in rainfall amount, drying time, droplet size, kinetic energy and soil clay and silt content.

On the possibility of calibrating urban storm-water drainage models using gauge-based adjusted radar rainfall estimates [PDF]
Traditionally, urban storm water drainage models have been calibrated using only raingauge data, which may result in overly conservative models due to the lack of spatial description of rainfall.

Biological soil crusts are complex biological soil layers formed by mosses, lichens, cyanobacteria, and the underlying soil, which together with plants affect rainfall infiltration, surface runoff, soil evaporation, and water movement in the soil.

Water Infiltration in Different Soil Covers and Management in the Cerrado–Amazon Ecotone, Brazil
Soil water infiltration is an important component of the hydrological cycle, and it is best evaluated when the raindrop impacts the ground surface. For this reason, it is affected by changes in land use and land cover and by the characteristics and ...
