SOIL-WATER CONTENT DEPENDENCY OF WATER REPELLENCY IN SOILS

Soil Science, 2007
Water repellency (WR) of soils is a global phenomenon. It affects hydrological processes such as infiltration, preferential flow, and surface erosion. Although the soil WR varies nonlinearly with soil-water content (w), WR is often determined at one fixed soil-water content. For a coarse sandy soil, we provide a comparison of the whole WR-w curve under

Relationship between the severity, persistence of soil water repellency and the critical soil water content in water repellent soils

Geoderma, 2014
Abstract Soil water repellency (SWR) causes reduced soil water storage and enhanced runoff and reduced ecosystem productivity. As such, characterization of SWR is a prerequisite for effective environmental management. The objectives of this study were to determine the relationship between the severity of SWR and its persistence and to determine the ...

Microplastic enhances water repellency of soils

2020
<p>Soils are the largest sink of microplastic particles (MPP) in terrestrial ecosystems. However, there is little knowledge on the implication of MPP contaminating soils. In particular, we don’t know how MPP move and, on the other hand, how they affect soil hydraulic properties and soil moisture dynamics.</p ...

Analyzing soil water repellency phenomena

2007
Benetzungsgehemmte Böden können weltweit gefunden werden. Benetzungshemmung in Böden verursacht eine räumliche Variabilität der Bodenfeuchte und einen höheren Oberflächenabfluss. Sie hat einen Einfluss auf die Formierung von präferenziellen Fließwegen und damit auf den Stofftransport und die Grundwasserneubildung aber auch auf das Pflanzenwachstum. Das

Infiltration in water repellent soil

2010
Observations made at Goat Meadows - a small sub-alpine basin located near Pemberton, British Columbia -demonstrated that a layer which is either water repellent or has only a limited affinity for water is present at most vegetated sites. The layer is typically a few centimetres in thickness, and is usually located at or near the top of the profile: it ...

How water moves in a water repellent sandy soil: 1. Potential and actual water repellency

Water Resources Research, 1994
Water repellency is an important property of many soils. It causes rainwater to penetrate into the soil as preferential flow paths, and solutes can reach the groundwater more rapidly than in the case of a homogeneous wetting. Water repellency depends on several factors which are principally related to the characteristics of the organic matter of the ...
